Natasha Farrant has been included in England Women's squad for their T20 tri-series against South Africa and New Zealand which gets underway on Wednesday.

England begin their campaign against South Africa at Taunton. Farrant replaces Lauren Winfield in the only change to the 14-strong group that secured a 2-1 ODI series victory over the Proteas last week.

Batter Winfield and Katie George, who like Farrant is a left-arm seamer, will join the squad for the fixtures against South Africa and New Zealand, both to be played on Saturday.

England coach Mark Robinson said: "It's heartening to see so much competition for places.

"There's a growing number of players beginning to make cases for selection which is a reflection of the depth that's starting to emerge, and that's exciting."
