Gibson, meanwhile, complements England’s all-round options alongside Nat Sciver-Brunt and Alice Davidson-Richards, with Sophie Ecclestone likely to operate as a lone specialist spinner with no place for either Charlie Dean or Sarah Glenn. An England ‘A’ side, led by experienced batter Lauren Winfield-Hill, will face the touring Australian side in a three-day warm-up game from Thursday 15 June.
