The Story in 60 Seconds

England Women's A squad will play a four-day red-ball match on their tour of India as preparation for next summer's Women's Ashes. The tour takes place across November and December, featuring three T20 fixtures in Pune beginning on November 30, followed by three 50-over matches and the four-day red-ball fixture at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium.

The tour addresses a gap in senior international fixtures, as England's senior team has no scheduled matches until after Christmas. Eleven internationally capped players are included in the squads across formats, featuring Issy Wong, Lauren Filer, and Tilly Corteen-Coleman, while Davina Perrin and Cassidy McCarthy will miss out due to injury.
