Paige Scholfield Withdrawn from South Africa Tour

England all-rounder Paige Scholfield has been ruled out of the upcoming T20I series in South Africa due to an ankle injury sustained during training. The 28-year-old will return to the UK for rehabilitation after the injury was assessed on Wednesday. Scholfield's selection for the squad was a surprise following England's disappointing exit from the T20 World Cup, where she was initially overlooked. The T20I series begins on November 22, followed by three ODIs and a Test match, providing England with a chance to recover from recent setbacks. Scholfield expressed excitement about the tour to her native South Africa, making her withdrawal particularly poignant. Alice Capsey has been recalled to the squad to fill the gap left by Scholfield's absence.
