Spinner Kirstie Gordon has been added to England Women's Test squad for their upcoming fixture against India in Mumbai.

The Blaze skipper will join her stablemates Tammy Beaumont and Nat Sciver-Brunt in the party for the four-day Test, which begins on Thursday 14 December.

Gordon, who has made six senior appearances for England, remains in Mumbai after representing England Women A in their 2-1 IT20 series victory over India A, in which she took six wickets.

Maia Bouchier has also been added to the Test squad, with Emma Lamb returning to the UK with a back problem.

The Test follows the conclusion of a three-match IT20 series against India, which England currently lead 1-0.
