England Women have named their squad for the Test Match against South Africa, which will kick off the multi-format series which will conclude with a T20 at The Incora County Ground.
The Test match forms the first part of the multi-format series, with four points available for the game and two points available for each white-ball game.
The squad features five potential Test debutants, with Emily Arlott, Lauren Bell, Alice Davidson-Richards, Freya Davies and Emma Lamb all potentially in line for their first appearance.
England’s final game of the series will take place on Monday 25 July, in what could be the decisive game, as Heather Knight’s side look to extend their unbeaten streak in Derby.
The fixture forms part of a world-class summer of international T20 action at The Incora County Ground, with Derbyshire Falcons taking in India on Friday 1 July, before England play two fixtures against South Africa (25 July) and India (13 September).
