A sports quiz covering England's women's cricket team's nervy win, key football matches, and FIFA World Cup preparations.
England's 15-player Women's T20 World Cup squad will skip this weekend's domestic matches for a training camp with the British Army. The programme, at an undisclosed UK location, focuses on decision-making, resilience and performing under pressure. The camp precedes the team's first international of the summer - three ODIs against New Zealand starting 10 May - before T20s against New Zealand and India. The World Cup begins against Sri Lanka on 12 June.
England women's cricket head coach Charlotte Edwards has named a T20 World Cup squad nearly identical to the one that lost the Ashes 16-0 fifteen months ago, drawing criticism for conservatism. The squad features established players like Heather Knight, Nat Sciver-Brunt and Danni Wyatt-Hodge, who have played in every World Cup since 2017 without winning a trophy. The only uncapped player is 18-year-old left-arm spinner Tilly Corteen-Coleman, while 19-year-old dynamo Davina Perrin was overlooked despite a match-winning Hundred semi-final century.
