England could use ice packs, cooling vests and other methods to deal with the heat during their T20 World Cup match against West Indies at Lord's on Wednesday, says stand-in captain Charlie Dean.

Temperatures are forecast to reach 35 degrees on Wednesday in London with a rare red heat warning in place.

With the Group 2 match set to go ahead (18:30 BST) amid travel warnings, Dean said her side will draw on past experiences of playing in countries such as India and Australia.

"It's a bit weird being in England and it being this warm but, yes, we've played in these conditions before we know that it takes a lot out of you," Dean told BBC Sport.

"We've got a few ice packs, lots of ice.

"There's those vests, the cooling vests that Formula One drivers have. A few of them might get run on and few [tubular] grips filled with ice to put around your neck, bits like that."
