ENG-W vs IND-W 2025: India announces teams for white-ball tour, Shafali Verma return to T20I setup

The Indian women’s cricket team will play three ODIs and five T20Is against England. Trent Bridge in Nottingham will host the first game of the series on June 28. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) released the teams for the white-ball assignments on Thursday, May 15.

There have been ten changes to the T20I team. They last played a Twenty20 International in Navi Mumbai on December 19, 2024, against the West Indies. Only Smriti Mandhana, Jemimah Rodrigues, wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh, captain Harmanpreet Kaur, and all-rounder Deepti Sharma have been able to hold onto their spots in the team that played in the West Indies series.

Shafali Verma, Yastika Bhatia, Harleen Deol, Sneh Rana, Sree Charani, Shuchi Upadhyay, Amanjot Kaur, Arundhati Reddy, Kranti Gaud and Sayali Satghare have been named in the squad for the T20I series in England, replacing Uma Chetry, Nandini Kashyap, Raghvi Bist, Sajeevan Sajana, Minnu Mani, Priya Mishra, Renuka Singh, Titas Sadhu, Saima Thakor and Radha Yadav.

The selectors haven’t made any changes to the 15-man team that won the recently finished tri-series against South Africa and Sri Lanka in Colombo on the ODI side.

The Indian women’s squad will receive excellent preparation for the Women’s ODI World Cup 2025,

Which will take place in India in September and October, thanks to the upcoming three ODIs in England. England, particularly at home, is a formidable team. Before facing India in a series, the West Indies will play three Twenty20 Internationals and as many One-Day Internationals as possible.
