Heather Knight is set to captain England’s women’s cricket team across all three formats on their upcoming tour of South Africa, which holds special significance as it will feature South Africa’s first women’s Test match since 2002. The four-day Test will be hosted in Bloemfontein after the limited-overs series, according to the ICC.

All-rounder Paige Scholfield, who made her debut in the Ireland series, has been selected for the T20I squad. Meanwhile, fast bowler Lauren Filer, whose role is increasingly pivotal, will compete in all formats. Adding fresh talent, 19-year-old Freya Kemp joins the Test squad for her debut, and batter Maia Bouchier may also achieve her first Test cap during the tour.

The T20I squad departs for South Africa on November 16, with the ODI and Test players joining on November 27. England will be missing all-rounder Danielle Gibson due to knee surgery following her injury at the 2024 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. With a mix of promising young players and seasoned talents, England aims to make a significant impact against the Proteas across formats.
