Katherine Brunt and Nat Sciver have made a swift return to the England Women squad for the Vitality IT20 series against West Indies.

The duo were rested by England for last week's third ODI international as they completed a 3-0 series whitewash over the Caribbean tourists, but form part of head coach Mark Robinson's 15-strong squad.

Linsey Smith is the only player added from the ODI squad, while Bryony Smith drops out after making an impressive start to international cricket in a convincing win against the West Indies at Chelmsford.

England have now won 13 all-format matches in a row and captain Heather Knight is determined to continue their winning run.

"It's great to set records and break new ground, it's something we talked about as a team when Robbo came in," Knight said.

"What's great is that a winning run requires a lot of hard work and a lot of ruthlessness - it won't continue if we become complacent or begin to let our own standards slip.
