Mandhana won her second player of the match award in a row

#2 Deepti Sharma’s timely breakthroughs

The off-spinner ultimately ended with figures of 10-1-27-2

With the pair of Hayley Matthews and Stafanie Taylor going strong, Raj introduced Sharma in the 11th over. The off-spinner tightened the screws from one end, forcing West Indies to lower their scoring rate.

Eventually, opener Matthews’s resilience gave up and Sharma sent her packing caught and bowled in the 19th over. The off-spinner then broke another partnership, albeit a bit late in the innings.

In the 46th over, Shanel Daley fell prey to Sharma’s bowling as she looked to up the ante a bit, having added 25 runs for the eighth wicket with Afy Fletcher. The off-spinner ultimately ended with figures of 10-1-27-2.
