England Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 Squad Preview & Match Schedule
The ECB selection panel for Women’s cricket has kept their faith in the current list of players who very recently whitewashed the West Indies Women’s team by 5-0 and as per the ECB player’s rotation policy they have not selected any player from England women’s T20 World Cup squad 2023 into England U19 Women T20 WC squad as both tournaments are going to be played in South Africa back to back. Alice Capsey & Kate Cross both are making their comeback after recovering from injuries & poor form which can often be very difficult to directly perform at the World Cup event. Below we have discussed the team squad for England women’s t20 world cup 2023 in detail along with the confirmed England women’s T20 World Cup schedule 2023 announced by the ICC.

Spin is one key factor in all the Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 teams and squads for this coming T20 World Cup as everyone believes pitches will be used up and spin will be a very crucial factor to restrict teams to chaseable scores. Team England got good attacking spin options in the likes of Sarah Glenn & Sophia Dunkley as legspinners along with an attacking left-arm orthodox bowler Sophie Ecclestone as well as many spin all-rounders like Danni Wyatt, Charlie Dean, Heather Knight & Alice Capsey.
The pace bowling attack of England is also solid on paper with experienced bowlers like Katherine Brunt, Freya Davies, Nat Sciver & Kate Cross along with young prospects like Lauren Bell & Maia Bouchier who can bowl in the mid-overs if needed.
The best thing about England women’s T20 World Cup 2023 players list is they have a lot of all-rounders in their team which provides extra options for the on-field captain and in T20Is especially having more all-rounders is the best winning approach due to the shorter nature of the game.
Amy Jones will surely be the first option as wicketkeeper due to her great experience of playing T20 internationals and a healthy T20I average of 21.27 in the 65 innings he played. Lauren Winfield-Hill is also selected in the team as a backup wicketkeeper who also got a reasonable amount of experience in hand.
