Nat Sciver-Brunt

Nat Sciver-Brunt is one of the leading all-rounders in the world. She has been delivering on the big stage for more than a decade now, and has the ability to win games for her side both with the bat and ball. She has a good average of over 35 in Women's T20 World Cup and has taken 23 wickets as well, which shows the kind of impact she makes with her all-round skills.

Also, Nat Sciver has great temperament and has quite often produced her big performances in big knockout matches. So, Nat Sciver-Brunt is surely a player to watch out from England's squad.

Sophie Ecclestone

The left-arm spinner is one of the best in the world. She has a brilliant bowling average of 14.65 in T20Is, and has picked 126 wickets in just 86 matches. The conditions in U.A.E are expected to help her too, and she would be England's trump card in the tournament. Also, Ecclestone has the great ability to produce positive results in crunch situations and also bowls well at the death.

Along with her bowling, Ecclestone's batting is also quite handy and overall she is a genuine match-winner for England.

Alice Capsey

The young cricketer is quite an aggressive batter, making her an x-factor for England in this T20 World Cup. If she gets going, she is very hard to stop and can take the game away from the opposition in a flash. The 20-year-old cricketer will bat at number 3 for England and could play match-changing knocks with her fearless attitude.

She is also a clever off-spinner and can be useful for captain Heather Knight in the U.A.E. So, Capsey, like Nat Sciver and Ecclestone, provides utility with her all-round skills and is a player to watch out for in this Women's T20 World Cup.
