Bess Heath and Freya Kemp have both been included in England’s squad for the Women’s T20 World Cup in the UAE in October. Wicketkeeper-batter Heath and all-rounder Kemp will be part of the tournament for the first time, with Danielle Gibson stepped up to the full 15-player squad as well after being a travelling reserve as England reached the semi-finals in South Africa last year.
'World Cups are always special events to be involved in as a player and I'm really excited by the squad we have selected to take over to the UAE,' Knight said. 'It's an honour to lead the team into another World Cup. We're looking forward to the challenges and opportunities ahead.' Cross, meanwhile, will lead England in both the ODI and T20 series against Ireland next month, which begin with three 50 overs-a-side matches in Belfast followed by three T20Is in Dublin.
