Heather Knight is a key member of the house group, positioned second to Australia within the girls’s T20 world rankings, the format in use on the Commonwealth Video games.
The damage stored Knight out of the final two T20I towards South Africa because the hosts ended the multi-format sequence unbeaten.
A report in cricket.com.au stated an England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) spokesperson confirmed Knight will “proceed to be assessed and handled” forward of their first Video games fixture towards Sri Lanka on July 30 at Edgbaston.
England will then play South Africa on August 2 earlier than ending their Group B marketing campaign towards New Zealand on August 4.
