England Women's squad announced for ODI Series June 11, 2002 England today named the 14-player ODI squad for the inaugural women's one-day international triangular tournament against India and New Zealand in Jersey and Durham this summer. England will also play two Test matches against India in August. Charlotte Edwards (Kent) and Claire Taylor (Berkshire), England's most prolific batsmen in recent years, return to the squad following injuries. Edwards, England's leading run-scorer, has not represented her country since the World Cup in December 2000 following cruciate ligament damage to her knee. Both players have returned to form as Captains in the ECB's Super Fours competition, the new domestic tournament for 48 elite players, which reaches its conclusion on Saturday 15th June at King's College, Taunton. England coach, John Harmer said: "I am delighted that these players have worked hard and taken the opportunity to prove they are of international calibre at Super Fours. This is a strong squad, with experience and determination, and I'm looking forward to some competitive, exciting cricket this summer." Gill McConway, ECB Director of Women's Cricket said: "The players have all benefited from Super Fours which, for the first time, is providing a bridge between domestic and international cricket. Many of the players in Super Fours are young with aspirations to represent their country, so it's a long term plan but, hopefully, we'll see some immediate benefit this summer." England's Chairman of Selectors, Patsy Lovell said: "We welcomed back many talented cricketers either from injury or the university commitments which kept them at home this winter." The triangular tournament will be a first for both English women's cricket and the island of Jersey, which has never staged international cricket and will play host to the opening game on Wednesday 10th July. The ODI final will take place at Chester-le-Street, Durham on Saturday 20th July 2002. The 14 players are: Player England Caps Date of birth Clare Connor (Sussex) Captain 64 01.09.1976 Sarah Collyer (Lancs) 19 03.10.1980 Charlotte Edwards (Kent) 35 17.12.1979 Mandie Godliman (Sussex) 3 05.04.1973 Laura Harper (Somerset) 11 21.01.1984 Kathryn Leng (Yorkshire) 42 10.09.1973 Laura Newton (Cheshire) 21 27.11.1977 Lucy Pearson (Staffs) 41 19.02.1972 Melissa Reynard (Yorks) 44 14.03.1972 Nicki Shaw (Notts) 15 30.12.1981 Laura Spragg (Yorks) 2 16.06.1982 Claire Taylor (Berks) 26 25.09.1975 Clare Taylor (Yorks) 92 22.05.1965 Arran Thompson (Lancs) 17 23.11.1981 Reserves: Caroline Atkins (Sussex), Jane Cassar (Notts), Dawn Holden (Notts), Hannah Lloyd (Somerset).
