England pick five uncapped players for Lord's Test against India

England have named a 15-member squad for the one-off Test against India at Lord's, beginning July 10. This marks the first women's Test to be played at the historic venue.

Nat Sciver-Brunt will captain England in a Test for the first time, leading a mix of experienced players like Heather Knight, Tammy Beaumont, and Amy Jones, alongside potential debutants.

Five players are yet to play a Test: Alice Capsey, Tilly Corteen-Coleman, Mady Villiers, Grace Potts, and Ellie Threlkeld. Potts and Threlkeld are also uncapped at international level.

Notable omissions from the last Test (against Australia in the 2024-25 Women's Ashes) include Sophia Dunkley, Bess Heath, Danni Wyatt-Hodge, Charlie Dean, Ryana MacDonald-Gay, and Kate Cross.

"We have selected a strong Test squad under the leadership of Nat Sciver-Brunt for what will be another historic few days at Lord's for women's cricket," said Clare Connor, ECB managing director of women's cricket.

"Test cricket is a rare and wonderfully challenging experience in the women's game and I know how proud our players are to represent England in this format. For the 11 women who will get the chance to be the first to enjoy that feeling at Lord's, it will be a moment to savour."

England squad: Nat Sciver-Brunt (captain), Tammy Beaumont, Lauren Bell, Maia Bouchier, Alice Capsey, Tilly Corteen-Coleman, Sophie Ecclestone, Lauren Filer, Amy Jones, Heather Knight, Emma Lamb, Grace Potts, Ellie Threlkeld, Mady Villiers, Issy Wong.
