Charlie Dean has been omitted from England's squad for their historic Test match against India at Lord's, scheduled for July 10. Despite her leadership in recent series and her role as vice-captain, the decision comes as a precaution to manage her workload following a back injury. Dean is currently captaining England at the ongoing T20 World Cup, where regular captain Nat Sciver-Brunt is sidelined due to injury. The squad features two uncapped players, Ellie Threlkeld and Grace Potts, as part of a blend of experience and youth ahead of the Test.
