Alice Capsey And Kate Cross Named In England Squad For The Upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup In February

Despite suffering a fractured collarbone in December, Alice Capsey has been nominated to England Women’s team for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup.

Capsey and Kate Cross, who missed the series whitewash in the West Indies last month, have been nominated to head coach Jon Lewis’ 15-player roster.

England’s campaign began on February 11 against the West Indies as part of a group that also includes India, Pakistan, and Ireland.

Before the official ICC warm-up games, they will play three warm-up matches against New Zealand.

Issy Wong and Dani Gibson have been named in the squad for South Africa as travelling reserves.

Rehan Ahmed, 18, will become England’s Youngest Men’s Test Cricketer After Being Handed Debut Against Pakistan

Teenage leg-spinner Rehan Ahmed will become England’s youngest men’s Test cricketer after being given his debut in Saturday’s series finale against Pakistan in Karachi.

When the final Test starts, the Leicestershire player will be 18 years and 126 days old, breaking the record of Brian Close, who was 18 years and 149 days old when he played against New Zealand in Manchester in July 1949.

Ahmed is one of two changes to England’s lineup as the visitors look for a record 3-0 series sweep and their ninth victory in ten Tests since Ben Stokes took over as captain and Brendon McCullum became head coach.

Ahmed and wicketkeeper Ben Foakes replace seamer James Anderson and off-spinner Will Jacks in the XI.

Foakes will reclaim the gloves from Surrey teammate Ollie Pope, who batted in the first Test in Rawalpindi while Foakes was ill and then held his place behind the wickets for the second match in Multan.

Ahmed will not be the youngest person to play a Test for England; that honor belongs to Holly Colvin, who was 15 years and 336 days old when she made her debut for the women’s squad against Australia in 2005 at Hove.

England can start restricted training on Wednesday, and the touring party must undergo a third test on Thursday.

Sri Lanka, who lost the second Test against South Africa in Johannesburg on Tuesday, will not face a 10-day quarantine period upon their return to the country.

They are expected to have PCR tests before being cleared to play in the two-Test series that starts in Galle on 14 January.

Sports Update

FORMULA ONE
Williams driver George Russell could replace 2020 F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton at this weekend’s Sakhir Grand Prix in Bahrain, after the Briton tested positive for the Coronavirus.
The 7-time champion has been forced to withdraw following a positive Covid-19 test result, and Mercedes have approached Williams to see if the team would release Russell for this weekend and also for next weekend’s Grand Prix in Abu Dhabi – if Hamilton does not recover on time.
Mercedes who have guided Russell’s career since 2017, could fall back to reserve driver Stoffel Vandoorne – if their move for Russell fails.

CRICKET
Batsman Dawid Malan put in another brilliant display, as England beat South Africa in Capetown on Tuesday to go top of the T20 World Rankings.
Malan hit a magnificent 99 not out, to power England to a nine-wicket victory over South Africa with 14 balls left.
Victory sees England move above Australia at the top of the ICC World Rankings, while batsman Malan reached his 10th 50-plus score in T20 Internationals in his 19th innings – beating the record of 25 innings held by Chris Gayle of the West Indies.
