Tilly Corteen-Coleman made her Hundred debut for Southern Brave in 2024.

Uncapped left-arm spinner Tilly Corteen-Coleman has been included in England's squad for the Women's T20 World Cup this summer. The 18-year-old impressed in England's intra-squad matches in South Africa this year.

She is one of three left-arm spinners in England's squad alongside Sophie Ecclestone and Linsey Smith, while off-spinner Charlie Dean is named as vice-captain to Nat Sciver-Brunt. There is no place for 19-year-old Davina Perrin, who scored a century in last year's Hundred Eliminator, while veteran batter Tammy Beaumont also misses out.

Lauren Bell leads the pace attack with Lauren Filer and Issy Wong, while all-rounders Dani Gibson and Freya Kemp offer seam-bowling options. Leg-spinner Sarah Glenn, a recent mainstay of England's T20 squads, was not considered for selection as she is recovering from a broken finger and has not played this season.

England start their World Cup campaign against Sri Lanka on 12 June at Edgbaston. They play white-ball series against New Zealand and India before the World Cup. The T20 squads are the same as for the World Cup, while wicketkeeper Kira Chathli and all-rounder Jodi Grewcock earn their first call-ups for the one-day internationals against the White Ferns. Beaumont, who has played 140 one-day internationals, is not included for either series.

England T20 squad: Nat Sciver-Brunt (captain), Charlie Dean (vice-captain), Lauren Bell, Alice Capsey, Tilly Corteen-Coleman, Sophie Dunkley, Sophie Ecclestone, Lauren Filer, Dani Gibson, Amy Jones (wk), Freya Kemp, Heather Knight, Linsey Smith, Issy Wong, Danni Wyatt-Hodge.

ODI squad v New Zealand: Nat Sciver-Brunt (captain), Em Arlott, Lauren Bell, Alice Capsey, Kira Chathli, Tilly Corteen-Coleman, Sophie Ecclestone, Lauren Filer, Mahika Gaur, Dani Gibson, Jodi Grewcock, Amy Jones (wk), Freya Kemp, Heather Knight, Emma Lamb, Linsey Smith, Issy Wong.

Corteen-Coleman has taken 17 wickets in as many games for Southern Brave in The Hundred and has nine wickets in four matches for Surrey in the One-day Cup this season. Brave paid £105,000 to retain her for 2026, a remarkable rise from her £12,500 wage in last year's competition.

She is the only outlier in an otherwise predictable squad as 11 of the 15 players also featured at last autumn's 50-over World Cup, where England lost to South Africa in the semi-finals. Beaumont's absence means Sciver-Brunt and predecessor Heather Knight are the only members from the World Cup-winning side of 2017 included.

Since then, which was the last time England hosted a Women's World Cup, they have failed to win any of the four T20 World Cups, the two 50-over editions or the five Ashes series. This will be Sciver-Brunt's seventh T20 World Cup and an eighth for Danni Wyatt-Hodge, who has been in sparkling form for Surrey this season with 258 runs in three innings.

Alice Capsey will be the back-up wicketkeeper to Amy Jones. England's World Cup group also includes Scotland, Ireland, West Indies and New Zealand. The final takes place on 5 July at Lord's.

England have underachieved since 2017 win - Sciver-Brunt Analysis from Stephan Shemilt, BBC Cricket Correspondent

What a rise for Tilly Corteen-Coleman. Only nine years old on the famous day England lifted the 50-over World Cup at Lord's in 2017, she now finds herself thrust into the squad for the next World Cup on home soil. All this little more than a month after she fetched in excess of £100,000 at the Hundred auction, becoming one of the highest paid sportswomen in the UK in the process.

England have underachieved in global tournaments since 2017 and will start this one no better than third favourites behind Australia and India. They at least avoid those two heavyweights in the group stage. The return of Dani Gibson should balance a team that was short of an all-rounder in last year's 50-over World Cup, while Freya Kemp adds batting power.

Issy Wong struggled after bursting on to the scene, but has the potential to be among the best fast bowlers in the world. Heather Knight and Nat Sciver-Brunt – captains past and present - have spoken about the aftermath of 2017, that perhaps the women's game in this country did not fully capitalise on the moment, and how England did not kick on to win more trophies.

Since then, the Lionesses and Red Roses have captured the imagination with success on home soil. It's not as simple as saying England need to have a strong showing at the World Cup to ensure cricket isn't left behind in the women's sport explosion, but this summer does represent a huge opportunity. Everyone connected with women's cricket in this country will know how important it is to take it.
