Shreyanka Patil has earned a place in the India A squads for the upcoming home series against England A, giving the off-spinner an opportunity to get back into contention after missing out on recent international assignments.

The 23-year-old has been named in all three squads for the T20, one-day and multi-day matches. Her selection comes after she missed India's series against Zimbabwe and was also overlooked for the upcoming multi-format tour of South Africa.

Patil has made a strong case for her return with impressive performances in domestic cricket. Representing Karnataka in the Senior Women's T20 Trophy, she has registered two five-wicket hauls in successive matches.

She picked up 5/26 against Maharashtra on October 27 to help Karnataka secure a seven-wicket victory. Two days later, she produced another impressive spell, claiming 5/18 against Goa as Karnataka registered a four-wicket win.

MUMBAI INDIANS STARS PICKED FOR INDIA A

The England A series will also provide an opportunity for several young players to showcase their talent. Sanika Chalke and Akshita Bhagat, who recently secured contracts at the 2027 Women's Premier League (WPL) auction, have both been named in the India A squads.

Both players were picked up by Mumbai Indians for Rs 10 lakh each. Chalke, a batter, features in the T20 squad, while all-rounder Bhagat has been included in the one-day and multi-day squads.

Anushka Sharma will lead India A in the T20 and one-day matches, with Minnu Mani serving as her deputy in both formats. Mani will captain the side in the multi-day fixture, with Tejal Hasabnis named vice-captain.

The tour will begin with a three-match T20 series in Pune from November 30 to December 5. The teams will then move to Mumbai for three one-day matches between December 8 and 14, followed by a multi-day fixture starting December 19 at the iconic Wankhede Stadium.
