England have named their squad for this summer’s T20 World Cup

Nat Sciver-Brunt will captain the side

England have named uncapped spinner Tilly Corteen-Coleman in their 15-strong squad for this summer’s Women’s T20 World Cup on home soil.

The 18-year-old slow left-armer, who was snapped up in The Hundred last month on a six-figure deal, has been drafted into the side owing to leg-spinner Sarah Glenn missing out because of a broken finger.

All-rounder Dani Gibson, the most expensive English player in The Hundred, is included after an injury-hit 2025, while fast bowlers Issy Wong and Lauren Filer have been given the nod ahead of Em Arlott.

There is no room for 109-cap Tammy Beaumont while highly-rated 19-year-old opener Davina Perrin, who came to prominence last year with a 42-ball century in The Hundred, also failed to make the cut.
