India vs England, 3rd T20I, Latest update: England complete a record chase to win their second match of the tri-series. Harmanpreet Kaur and Co ran into a belligerent Danielle Wyatt, who simply took the game away from India. Preview: Easily beaten in the tournament opener by Australia, India will hope for a reversal in fortune when they take on England in the women’s T20 triangular series. The hosts will need to improve in all three departments if they are to avoid a repeat of the six-wicket defeat to the Aussies at the Brabourne Stadium. India’s middle and lower middle order have not been among the runs and that is an area of concern for the team management.

Reuters[/caption] The likes of Veda Krishnamurthy, Harmapreet Kaur, Mithali Raj — who have so much potential and experience — would certainly be eyeing a better show on a track where the ball is expected to come on to the bat nicely. If Mithali and Harmanpreet fire in unison they can demoralise even the strong English attack. Even Mumbai girl Jemmimah Rodrigues needs to pull her socks up and play to her potential. Only the form of vice-captain Smriti Mandhana would have satisfied coach Tushar Arothe, but the left-handed batswoman too needs to learn from her past mistakes and stay till the end. Apart from Smriti, Anuja Patil has been getting some runs, and the team could mull sending her up the order. Mandhana made a brisk 67 in the game against Australia but admitted that she threw her wicket way. If India want to pile up runs on the board, her role will be crucial again. On the bowling front, veteran seamer Jhulan Goswami ran though the Australian top-order without getting adequate support from others, including Shikha Pandey and Rumeli Dhar. Tomorrow, Pandey and Dhar will need to chip in with their effective bowling to restrict England. The spinners – Poonam Yadav and Deepti Sharma – also need to take up responsibility and deliver. England did play spin well in their win against the Aussies yesterday, so Sharma and Yadav will have to come up with something different to stop them. England have defeated Australia by eight wickets and will look to continue their winning streak. All-rounder Netlie Sciver shone with both bat and ball and she would be eyeing another stellar performance, and so would Tamsin Beaumont. England pacers and spinners have also been among the wickets. While a win for India will bring them back in contention for a place in the final, another defeat will surely affect their morale, besides making their task even more difficult. Teams (from): India: Harmanpreet Kaur (captain), Smriti Mandhana, Mithali Raj, Veda Krishnamurthy, Jemimah Rodrigues, Anuja Patil, Deepti Sharma, Taniya Bhatia, Poonam Yadav, Jhulan Goswami, Shikha Pandey, Pooja Vastrakar, Rumeli Dhar, Mona Meshram, Radha Yadav. England: Heather Knight (captain), Tamsin Beaumont, Kate Cross, Alice Davidson-Richards, Sophie Ecclestone, Tash Farrant, Katie George, Jenny Gunn, Alex Hartley, Daniellie Hazell, Amy Jones, Anya Shrubsole, Natlie Sciver, Fran Wilson, Danni Wyatt.

England win by 7-wickets!
England complete a record chase to win their second match of the tri-series. Harmanpreet Kaur and Co ran into a belligerent Danielle Wyatt, who simply took the game away from India. Good contribution by Beaumount.
India must be disappointed with their second loss of the series, especially after scoring close to 200 in the first innings.
After 18 overs, England 195/3 (Nat Sciver 10, Heather Knight 6)
The visiting side has made giant strides to get one shot away from India’s first innings score. Four more runs needed with 12 deliveries left in the innings.
After 17 overs, England 183/3 (Nat Sciver 4, )
India get rid of Wyatt after she struck a belligerent knock of 124. India will require a miracle to pull a victory from here on.
OUT! End of an unbelivable innings. Fielders congratulate the departing batter as she makes her way back. Holes out to Veda at long on.
Wyatt c Veda Krishnamurthy b Deepti Sharma 124(64)
After 16 overs, England 174/2 (Danielle Wyatt 116, Nat Sciver 3)
Another expensive over for India. England require 25 off 24 balls. Wyatt has made India’s massive 198 look mighty small.
After 15 overs, England 160/2 (Danielle Wyatt 104, Nat Sciver 1)
Eventful over that with Wyatt becoming the second women’s player with two T20I hundreds. Deepti gets the wicket of Beaumount but it has come at least couple of overs late.
OUT! India have a wicket finally! Beaumont is the one who walks back after she is caught by Mandhana in the deep.Attempted another big shot on the leg side but could only find deep mid-wicket.
T Beaumont c Mandhana b Deepti Sharma 35(23)
After 14 overs, England 151/1 (Danielle Wyatt 97, Tammy Beaumount 35)
India turn to their strike bowler to turn the game around. Well, Goswami cannot get a wicket, but she has kept down to seven runs without conceding a boundary. Bowled in the right areas not giving the England batters room to play with, no looseners, but the batting duo still sneak seven runs, running couple of braces.
After 13 overs, England 144/1 (Danielle Wyatt 95, Tammy Beaumount 30)
England are galloping towards their target. 15 more runs leaked. India under immense pressure.
After 12 overs, England 129/1 (Danielle Wyatt 93, Tammy Beaumount 19)
Deepti’s first ball of the over was smacked for boundary but the offie came back well to keep it down to seven.
After 11 overs, England 122/1 (Danielle Wyatt 91, Tammy Beaumount 14)
Vastrakar taken to the cleaners once again! 15 runs of the over, including three boundaries. The asking rate has dropped significantly. Just a touch over 8.
After 10 overs, England 107/1 (Danielle Wyatt 82, Tammy Beaumount 9)
Wyatt is not only about scoring the fours and sixes. She has displayed great awareness in running twos wherever possible and continues to rotate the strike. End of another fruitful over for England.
After 9 overs, England 96/1 (Danielle Wyatt 72, Tammy Beaumount 8)
Wyatt has helped England in touching distance of 100 and we aren’t halfway into the innings. Taking the game away from India with every hit. Indian bowlers look clueless.
After 8 overs, England 80/1 (Danielle Wyatt 59, Tammy Beaumount 5)
The strike rate dips slighlty after the wicket but without much risk England still manage eight runs off the over. 119 runs needed off 72 balls
