England women vs India women, 1st T20I, LIVE score and updates: DONE AND DUSTED! England win by 18 runs by virtue of the DLS method.
The weather played spoilsport, it would have been great if we had a full game here. Nevertheless, England appeared the better side, right from the word go.
First T20I preview: The one-off Test is done and dusted, the ODI series also complete, ending in favour of the hosts, and now the focus shifts to T20Is as England women and their Indian counterparts look set to battle it out in the final leg of India’s tour to England.
After the competitive drawn Test, the visitors toiled hard to avoid a clean sweep in the ODIs, as they salvaged some pride in the third and final ODI recently.
Mithali Raj showcased class and consistency in the ODIs, scoring a fifty in each of the one-dayers, but the visitors will be missing the services of Mithali and fellow veteran Jhulan Goswami, both of whom have retired from the shortest format.
There will be personnel changes within the squad, as a result, with the likes of Richa Ghosh and Indrani Roy coming into the side.
Shafali Verma began the England tour with scores of 96 and 63 in the one-off Test, but she hasn’t been able to carry on the exploits to the limited-overs so far, with scores of 15, 44 and 19 in the three ODIs.
