Danni Wyatt named in England's T20I squad to face India
Kate Cross and Lauren Winfield Hill missed out on a spot in the squad after being a part of the ODI side that beat India 2-1. Uncapped Emily Arlott, who was part of the Test and ODI squad, missed out too, but Mady Villiers was back in the side.
England currently lead the multi-format series 6-4, having drawn the one-off Test and won two out of three matches in the ODI series.

With six points up for grabs, the winner of the multi-format series will be decided in the T20I leg of the tour.
Ahead of the series, England head coach Lisa Keightley said that her team would be looking to be ruthless after a disappointing showing in the third ODI.
"We've played some good cricket across both the Test and the ODIs and we've named a strong squad for the IT20 series," said Keightley. "It's 6-4 in the multi-format series and it's a series we're pushing hard to win. We probably weren't quite at our best in the third ODI so I'd like us to hit the ground running in the first IT20 and be ruthless."
England squad for T20I series against India: Heather Knight (captain), Tammy Beaumont, Katherine Brunt, Freya Davies, Sophia Dunkley, Sophie Ecclestone, Tash Farrant, Sarah Glenn, Amy Jones, Nat Sciver, Anya Shrubsole, Mady Villiers, Fran Wilson, Danni Wyatt.
