Gaby Lewis remains captain of the side in the continued absence of permanent captain, Laura Delany due to injury.
About the third ODI, Lewis said:
“The one thing about this team is that we always bounce back and I think that shows a lot of character within the group. We’re obviously hugely disappointed with our first two performances, but to turn that around and come out with a win – we’re delighted and really looking forward to the T20Is.
“Any home T20I series is very exciting, and especially so against top-quality nations. We rarely get England here, so we’re ready to go and I think leading into the T20Is with the win we’re kind of building that positivity amongst the squad.”
