Northamptonshire seamer Clara Thaker has been rewarded for her continuing development by being named in the England Women Under-19s squad ahead of a packed winter of international cricket.
Fellow Steelback Ava Clive has also been named as a non-travelling reserve as England Women Under-19s prepare for their biggest ever winter programme which culminates in an ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup in Nepal and Bangladesh.
Following a series of training camps in the UK, the squad will travel to take part in a five-match T20 series against India in November and December. After the series, they will remain in India for a further week to continue their outdoor preparations for the ICC tournament in January and February 2027.
