The Isle of Man women's national cricket squad has been announced for its latest international tournament being held next week.

A total of 14 players will represent the Island at a quadrangular series being held at the Happy Valley Ground in Episkopi, Cyprus from 18-20 April.

The Isle of Man will face hosts Cyprus as well as Jersey and Denmark in six games across the three days.
