India Women take on England Women in the second game of a three-match T20I series on Saturday, December 9, at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

England, led by Heather Knight, started the series on a dominating note by winning the opening game by 38 runs on Wednesday. Nat Sciver-Brunt won the Player of the Match award.

She came to her team’s rescue after they had lost the early wickets of Sophia Dunkley and Alice Capsey. The veteran scored 77 off 53 with 13 fours and put on 138 runs for the third wicket with Danni Wyatt.

Wyatt played an absolute blinder of 75 off 47 with eight fours and two sixes. Later, Amy Jones played a cameo of 23 off nine to help England put up a big score of 197-6.

England restricted India to 159-6. Left-arm spinner Sophie Ecclestone was stupendous, registering figures of 4-0-15-3. Shafali Verma scored 52, but her knock went in vain.
