India Women are touring England for three T20Is and a Test match on either side of the Women’s T20 World Cup. Here are the squads for the ENG vs IND women's T20Is.
Ahead of the T20 World Cup in the same country, India Women will play three T20Is in England – at Chelmsford on May 28, at Bristol on May 30, and at Taunton on June 2.
England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt, who had been ruled out of the New Zealand series, will miss the India matches as well. Charlie Dean will lead England in her absence.
India, meanwhile, are without seam-bowling all-rounder Amanjot Kaur for both the T20I series and the World Cup. Kashvee Gautam, her like-for-like replacement, has been ruled out as well.

ENG vs IND: What are the team updates?
With the T20 World Cup a mere two weeks away, Sciver-Brunt continues to race against time. England would want their talismanic all-rounder to be back in time for the T20 World Cup. This series, meanwhile, will help them zero in on their best combination.
India face a conundrum. Left without a seam-bowling all-rounder, they can either either pick a spin-bowling all-rounder or compromise on one of batting and bowling. As captain Harmanpreet confirmed, these three matches will give India “more clarity” on the eventual combination.
