India all-rounder Shreyanka Patil has been named in the India A squads for the upcoming multi-format series against England A, starting November 30. The series will feature three T20 matches, three One-Day games and a multi-day fixture across Pune and Mumbai.

Shreyanka last represented India during the country’s victorious Asian Games campaign. She was subsequently left out of the home series against Zimbabwe and the senior team’s upcoming tour of South Africa. Her selection in all three formats marks an opportunity to work her way back into the national setup.

She is among five players selected across all three squads, alongside Minnu Mani, Shipra Giri, Tanisha Singh and Saima Thakor.

Kashvee Gautam Also Returns After Injury

Fast-bowling all-rounder Kashvee Gautam has been included in India’s white-ball squads for the England A series.

Kashvee last played for India during the T20I tour of South Africa in April before a knee injury forced her out of action and required surgery. She has since returned to competitive cricket through the ongoing Senior Women’s T20 Trophy, representing Chandigarh.

Her inclusion provides another opportunity to regain rhythm and build match fitness at the India A level.

Anushka Sharma and Minnu Mani to Lead India A

Batter Anushka Sharma will captain India A in both the T20 and One-Day series, with Minnu Mani serving as vice-captain.

For the multi-day fixture, the leadership responsibilities will switch, with Minnu taking charge and Tejal Hasabnis appointed as her deputy.
