England vs India LIVE Score

After 20 overs,India Women 140/5 ( Richa Ghosh (W) 47 , Pooja Vastrakar 2)

England win by 11 runs, and maintain their unbeaten run in the ongoing T20 World Cup!

It ultimately proved too much even for Ghosh, who did collect a maximum off the fourth delivery after starting off with back-to-back boundaries. Senior bowler Brunt, however, regained her composure eventually and conceded a brace in the penultimate delivery, taking the equation out of India’s hands, before finishing with a dot. Ghosh remains unbeaten on 47, producing another stellar knock though this one goes in vain.

England vs India LIVE Score

FOUR! FOUR! Ghosh is off to a fiery start in the final over, collecting consecutive fours off senior bowler Katherine Sciver-Brunt! What’s more, the second one is a waist-high full toss that is called a no ball! Can the keeper-batter really pull off a miracle from here?

England vs India LIVE Score

After 19 overs,India Women 121/5 ( Richa Ghosh (W) 30 , Pooja Vastrakar 1)

Sophie Ecclestone bowls out a brilliant penultimate over, conceding just three runs with Deepti Sharma getting run out while coming back for a second run.

India need 31 off 6 balls now, and unless Ghosh is able to conjure a rabbit out of the hat, England should go through easily.

England vs India LIVE Score

OUT! Deepti fails to make her ground at the striker’s end while coming back for a risky second, and perishes for 7 as India lose their fifth wicket, with another 33 needed off 10 balls. IND 119/5; need 33 off 10

After 18 overs,India Women 118/4 ( Richa Ghosh (W) 29 , Deepti Sharma 6)

SIX! Smashed over wide long on by Richa Ghosh off Lauren Bell! A much-needed strike that keeps the Women in Blue in the hunt! Bell, however, makes a decent comeback after the six, bowling two dots in a row to sign off with figures of 1/22.

India need another 34 to win with just 12 deliveries remaining, and will need a huge over from here if they are to keep their unbeaten run alive.

After 16 overs,India Women 105/4 ( Richa Ghosh (W) 22 , Deepti Sharma 0)

OUT! And much like Nat Sciver-Brunt earlier today, Smriti Mandhana departs right after bringing up her half-century, getting caught at long on while looking to collect two sixes in a row! 12 runs and a wicket from Glenn’s third over, with India needing another 47 to win with four overs remaining.

IND vs ENG LIVE Cricket Score

SIX! What a way for Smriti Mandhana to bring up her 21st T20I half-century, dancing down the track and going for an inside-out loft over extra cover, clearing the fence in the process! Also brings up the 100 for the Women in Blue in the process. IND 105/3; need 47 off 25

IND vs ENG LIVE Cricket Score

After 15 overs,India Women 93/3 ( Smriti Mandhana 45 , Richa Ghosh (W) 17)

Both Mandhana and Ghosh are looking for the big hits, but credit to spinners Glenn and Ecclestone for tying these two down and not giving them any room to swing their arms, forcing them to rotate the strike through the ones and twos. Meanwhile, it has started to drizzle at St George’s Park at the moment, and the current pair will need a few big hits just to be on the safe side of the DLS par score. India need 59 off 30.

IND vs ENG LIVE Cricket Score

After 13 overs,India Women 84/3 ( Smriti Mandhana 42 , Richa Ghosh (W) 11)

Mandhana alleviates some of the pressure on her with two boundaries in three balls from Dean, the second of which is a lofted drive over extra cover that takes her into the 40s. India need 68 off 42, and will need a big over or two to keep the required rate under check.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score

After 12 overs,India Women 75/3 ( Smriti Mandhana 34 , Richa Ghosh (W) 10)

FOUR! FOUR! Back-to-back boundaries for new batter Richa Ghosh, both scored towards the leg side. While she comfortably beats the fielder running to her left from fine leg with a flick in the first one, it’s a misfield by Capsey at deep square leg in the following delivery that will frustrate Nat Sciver-Brunt, who is off to an expensive start in her first over.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score

OUT! And now skipper Harmanpreet Kaur gets the marching orders as India lose two quick wickets around the halfway mark! Kaur charges down the track, and ends up getting a thick leading edge that results in a simple catch for Capsey at cover. IND 62/3

Kaur c Capsey b Ecclestone 4(6)

OUT! Rodrigues perishes while looking to accelerate, holing out to Brunt at long on as Glenn breaks the second-wicket stand. Big wicket for England, getting rid of the batter who helped chase down 150 against Pakistan on Sunday. Time for the players to have a drink after this wicket. IND 57/2

After 8 overs,India Women 50/1 ( Smriti Mandhana 30 , Jemimah Rodrigues 7)

Dunkley puts down a chance after a miscue by Mandhana; the southpaw was attempting to charge down the track against Glenn but ended up hitting off the toe end of her blade towards cover, where the ball lands just out of Dunkley’s reach. Mandhana is happy to trade singles for now, and is batting on 30 at the end of the 8th over. The Women in Blue, meanwhile, have crossed the 50 mark already, needing another 101 to win in 72 deliveries.

India vs England LIVE Cricket Score

After 6 overs,India Women 40/1 ( Smriti Mandhana 25 , Jemimah Rodrigues 2)

Mandhana welcomes Charlie Dean with a boundary right after Verma’s dismsisal, lofting the ball over mid on to move into the 20s. Both Dean, as well as Bell, however, keep things tidy following the boundary, with just seven more runs coming in the next 11 deliveries, as India reach 40/1 at the end of the powerplay.

India vs England LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! Lauren Bell with the breakthrough, as the dangerous Shafali Verma departs for a single-digit score! Looks to smash a short ball down the ground, but ends up getting just the heigh, and not the distance. Katherine Sciver-Brunt settles under the ball after running in from long on, and safely pouches it. IND 29/1 after 4

Verma c K Sciver-Brunt b Bell 8(11)

After 3 overs,India Women 27/0 ( Smriti Mandhana 18 , Shafali Verma 6)

Big over for the Indians, with Smriti Mandhana taking Katherine Sciver-Brunt to the cleaners, collecting four boundaries in six deliveries including three in a row! The southpaw starts off with a solid punch through the covers followed by a drive through the same region, before pulling towards the midwicket fence to complete a hat-trick of fours. Two balls later, she dispatches a short ball from KSB behind square to make it four boundaries in the over. Top start for the Women in Blue.

Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma walk out to commence India’s chase, with the Women in Blue needing a solid start through these two if they are to pull off a third successive chase in a row. Katherine Brunt to bowl the first over of the innings.

The RCB effect

What a player!

After 20 overs,England Women 151/7 ( Sophie Ecclestone 11 , Sarah Glenn 0)

Renuka bowls out a brilliant final over, dismissing the set Amy Jones and Katherine Sciver-Brunt off successive deliveries to collect her first-ever international five-for. She’s on a hat-trick in the final delivery and fires a full delivery that beats not just new batter Sarah Glenn, but also the keeper and runs away for four byes, allowing England to cross 150 in the end.

Stay tuned for the chase, which will begin shortly.

England vs India LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! Renuka has a five-for now, getting rid of Katherine Sciver-Brunt for a golden duck with the latter holing out to the fielder at long on while looking for a maximum off her very first delivery! Can she get another wicket off the last ball of the innings and complete a hat-trick? ENG 147/7

K Sciver-Brunt c Yadav b Renuka 0(1)

OUT! Trust Renuka to pick a wicket everytime she prepares to bowl today! Returns to the attack at the fag end of the English innings and manages to prise out the key wicket of Jones, who ends up getting caught-behind while looking for a reverse paddle. ENG 147/6

After 19 overs,England Women 144/5 ( Amy Jones (W) 39 , Sophie Ecclestone 9)

Huge, potentially game-changing 19th over for England with Sophie Ecclestone and Amy Jones collecting a six each off Deepti Sharma, who ends up conceding 17 off her final over of the evening and signing off with figures of 1/37. Ecclestone swings her arms in the fourth delivery and manages to clear the cow corner fence comfortably. Jones doesn’t get as much distance in her slog sweep, but manages to beat the leaping fielder at deep midwicket nevertheless.

England vs India LIVE Score

OUT! Sciver-Brunt departs shortly after bringing up her half-century. Goes for a reverse-paddle, but ends up hitting it towards Mandhana, who lunges forward and ends up pulling off another clean catch at short third. ENG 120/5

England vs India LIVE Score

Fifty for Nat Sciver-Brunt, her 11th in T20Is as well as her first of the ongoing T20 World Cup — her 51 against South Africa in the warm-up won’t count. Brings up the milestone with a single, taking 41 balls to reach the milestone and collecting five fours along the way. ENG 118/4

After 16 overs,England Women 117/4 ( Natalie Sciver 49 , Amy Jones (W) 25)

FOUR! FOUR! Jones collects back-to-back fours off Radha to move into the 20s in quick time, and attacking the Indians quite freely at the moment. England, meanwhile, have 117 on the board with four overs to go, two set batters at the crease and plenty of wickets in hand. Surely they’ll fancy getting past 150 from here.

England vs India LIVE Score

SIX! Amy Jones has suddenly decided to accelerate after getting off to a sedate start, smashing the first six of the innings the same over in which she collects her first boundary. Picks the slower one from Vastrakar, rocks back and clobbers it over the midwicket fence. ENG 106/4

England vs India LIVE Score

After 14 overs,England Women 92/4 ( Natalie Sciver 44 , Amy Jones (W) 5)

Radha Yadav is introduced in the second half of the English innings, and has yet to concede a boundary after bowling two overs. Veteran seamer Pandey, meanwhile, signs off with figures of 1/20 after bowling out her quota, conceding just two singles in her final over.

IND vs ENG LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! Tame end to what was turning out to be a solid innings from Knight, who ends up chipping a low full toss from Pandey straight to Shafali at mid off for the simplest of catches. End of what turned out to be a solid fourth-wicket stand, one that has brought England back on its feet and on track for a sizeable score. ENG 80/4

Knight c Verma b Pandey 28(23)

IND vs ENG LIVE Cricket Score

After 10 overs,England Women 72/3 ( Natalie Sciver 35 , Heather Knight (C) 23)

Sciver-Brunt and Knight have built a solid partnership for the fourth wicket so far, worth 43 off just 32 deliveries already with England starting to eye a total in the range of 140-150 at the halfway mark in their innings. Two poor overs from Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Shafali Verma, both conceding back-to-back boundaries in their overs, have only contributed towards the momentum shift in favour of the Englishwomen.

After 8 overs,England Women 49/3 ( Natalie Sciver 24 , Heather Knight (C) 11)

Renuka Singh is taken off the attack after a superb powerplay spell in which she erased the English top three, with Pandey replacing her and bowling a much tidier over this time around. Deepti continues from the other end, with Nat collecting her third boundary of the innings in the penultimate delivery after charging down the track and smashing the ball towards cow corner.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score

After 6 overs,England Women 37/3 ( Natalie Sciver 17 , Heather Knight (C) 6)

Renuka delivers the kind of start India were hoping for after they opted to bowl, sending England’s top three back to the hut inside the powerplay. What has gone against them, however, is the fact that they’ve already burnt both of their reviews, the second one following an unsuccessful LBW decision against England skipper Knight in the sixth over, in which Deepti Sharma replaces Pooja Vastrakar.

IND vs ENG LIVE Score

BOWLED! What a spell this is turning out to be for Renuka, as she castles Dunkley with another peach of a delivery! The opener shuffled to her left, looking to go inside out, but missed the ball completely, resulting in the leg stump getting knocked over. ENG 29/3

Dunkley b Renuka 10(11)

IND vs ENG LIVE Score

After 4 overs,England Women 24/2 ( Sophia Dunkley 10 , Natalie Sciver 10)

FOUR! FOUR! Nat Sciver-Brunt doesn’t wait long before taking the attack to the Indians, collecting consecutive boundaries off Pooja Vastrakar, who replaces Pandey in the attack. The senior all-rounder plays a lap towards fine leg before getting a thick outside edge that sends the ball flying towards third man, resulting in a 10-run first over for Vastrakar. India, meanwhile, burnt a review in the previous over after an unsuccessful LBW appeal against Sciver-Brunt, with the ball going down leg.

India vs England LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! Make that two-in-two for Renuka Singh, as she makes good use of the in-swing once again to beat Alice Capsey’s blade and knock the off-stump over! Capsey departs for 3 as England lose their second wicket inside the powerplay. ENG 10/2

Capsey b Renuka 3(6)

India start off with seam from both ends with Shikha Pandey, making her first appearance of this tournament, bowling alongside Renuka Singh. While Renuka is off to a top start, getting rid of Wyatt while giving away just three runs, Pandey ends up conceding a boundary to the in-form Dunkley.
