England A are set to include a four-day match in their upcoming tour of India, which is intended to help prepare for next summer's Women's Ashes. The tour, taking place in November and December, will also feature three T20s and three 50-over matches.
The T20s are scheduled to begin in Pune on 30 November. Following these, the 50-over fixtures and the four-day game will be held at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium.
Eleven players in the England A squad have international caps, including fast bowlers Issy Wong and Lauren Filer, and left-arm spinner Tilly Corteen-Coleman. All-rounders Mady Villiers, Charis Pavely, and Jodi Grewcock are also included, alongside wicketkeeper-batter Kira Chathli and seamer Grace Ballinger.
The multi-format Ashes series is due to start with a four-day Test on 27 June at Headingley.
