India A Women's One-Day Squad Announced for England A Tour 2026
Following the T20 squad announcement, the BCCI Women's Selection Committee has officially revealed the 15-member India A squad for the One-Day leg of the 2026 England A tour. This 50-over series will serve as a crucial testing ground for domestic performers looking to break into the senior national side.
The selectors have opted for consistency in leadership. Anushka Sharma retains the captaincy for the One-Day format, with all-rounder Minnu Mani continuing as her trusted Vice-Captain.
While the core remains similar to the T20 setup, the 50-over squad features several strategic changes to handle the longer format. Experienced top-order batter Priya Punia makes the cut, bringing valuable stability to the lineup. The management has also included fresh faces like Tejal Hasabnis and promising bowlers Amisha Bahukandi, Akshita Bhagat, and Shabnam Shakil to strengthen the squad's depth.
