HEAD COACH Jon Lewis expects a lauded spin attack to carry out the “bulk of the work” when England target Women’s T20 World Cup glory.

England will travel to the United Arab Emirates spearheaded by four front-line spinners, with Linsey Smith, who returned to the international T20 fold earlier this year, joining Sophie Ecclestone, Sarah Glenn and Charlie Dean in a 15-strong squad captained by Heather Knight.

Ecclestone and Glenn have taken more than 200 international T20 wickets between them, and England’s spin attack is rated among the best in world cricket.
