Meg Lanning to lead Australia
Announcing the Australia squad for the Women’s T20 World Cup, Shawn Flegl said, “It’s always tough to narrow a squad down to just 15 players, but we’re confident we’ve picked a well-balanced side. Seeing Meg and Georgia back in action for Victoria has been exciting. Both bring a wealth of experience to the group, which is always crucial during major tournaments. Georgia in particular has had a tough run of injuries, but she’s shown a great deal of resilience and her return is a real boost for the side.”
The hosts of the World Cup, South Africa will now play a tri-series with India and West Indies as practice for the tournament. South Africa, Australia, Bangladesh, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka are in group 1. Whereas, India, West Indies, Pakistan, England, and Ireland are placed in Group 2. The first game will be between South Africa and Sri Lanka on February 10. Australia will play the ODI series against Pakistan before traveling to South Africa.
Australia’s squad for Women’s T20 World Cup:
Meg Lanning (capt), Alyssa Healy, Darcie Brown, Ashleigh Gardner, Kim Garth, Heather Graham, Grace Harris, Jess Jonassen, Alana King, Tahlia McGrath, Beth Mooney, Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt, Annabel Sutherland, Georgia Wareham
