The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) has announced England women’s cricket team‘s squad for the upcoming one-off Test against the India women’s cricket team. The 4-day match, from July 10 to 13, will be a historic moment, with the first-ever Women’s Test at Lord’s Cricket Stadium. Earlier in the month, Lord’s hosted their 150th Test match. However, the venue hasn’t hosted a Women’s Test in their 142-year history.

“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. 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,” said ECB’s Managing Director of Women’s Cricket Clare Connor.
India Women are yet to announce their squad for the one-off Test, which will commence a week after the Women’s T20 World Cup concludes. The two teams last played a Women’s Test in 2023, while 2021 was the last time they faced off in red-ball cricket in England.
