Freya Davies & Danni Wyatt in England squad for New Zealand ODIs

Sussex players, Freya Davies and Danni Wyatt are part of a 15-strong England Women squad for the forthcoming Royal London Series of One-Day Internationals against New Zealand that starts next week.

Danni makes a return to the squad having missed the ODIs against India earlier this summer.

Looking ahead to the series, England Women's Head Coach, Lisa Keightley said: "

"We're really looking forward to the Royal London Series. It's a great test for us, and five more important ODIs ahead of the ICC Women's World Cup next year.

"It's a very busy schedule and we'll need to work hard throughout it to ensure players are in the best position to get through it, and it may well be that we need to manage the group in order to do that."
