ENGLAND have named former captain Heather Knight in their Women's World Cup squad as she continues her comeback from injury, but experienced seamer Kate Cross is among those to miss out.
Knight, pictured, has not played since damaging her hamstring in May but takes her place in a 15-strong squad for the tournament in India and Sri Lanka, which runs from September 30 to November 2. With conditions on the subcontinent set to offer turn, head coach Charlotte Edwards has included four specialist spinners.
