England’s ODI Ashes squad welcomes the inclusion of Tammy Beaumont and Lauren Filer, after their absence from the T20 series against Australia.
Last month’s solitary Test witnessed a striking performance from Beaumont with a record-breaking score of 208, while Filer impressively claimed four wickets, though England fell to a defeat by 89 runs.
Following the first T20 series victory over Australia since 2017, the upcoming three-match ODI series brings heightened anticipation.
“Tammy and Lauren’s return brings us great pleasure,” stated head coach Jon Lewis.
“Tammy’s double-century during the Test match showcased her immense talent, while Lauren adds significant speed to our bowling attack alongside Issy [Wong].
“We take immense pride in our T20 series triumph and eagerly anticipate the forthcoming Ashes stage, where everything is at stake.”
The experienced Beaumont, a 32-year-old batter, carries a history of 103 ODI caps for England. In contrast, the 22-year-old bowler Filer is set to make her international debut in the 50-over format.
The initial ODI encounter out of the three-match series is scheduled for 12 July at the Seat Unique Stadium, Bristol. Subsequent matches will unfold at the Ageas Bowl, Southampton on 16 July, and the County Ground, Taunton on 18 July.
Currently, England trails Australia 6-4 in the points-based Ashes series. Each ODI win brings two points to the victorious side.
The ODI Ashes series’ England squad includes: Heather Knight (capt), Tammy Beaumont, Lauren Bell, Alice Capsey, Kate Cross, Charlie Dean, Sophia Dunkley, Sophie Ecclestone, Lauren Filer, Danielle Gibson, Sarah Glenn, Amy Jones, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Issy Wong, and Danielle Wyatt.
