India Women will look to carry forward their momentum when they face England Women in the second T20I at the County Ground in Bristol on Tuesday, July 1. After a resounding 97-run win in the series opener at Nottingham, the Women in Blue are riding high on confidence and could be further boosted by the return of skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, who missed the first match due to a precautionary rest following a head injury.
The spotlight, however, remains firmly on vice-captain Smriti Mandhana, whose maiden T20I hundred helped India post a mammoth 209/3. Debutant spinner Shree Charani then ran through the English batting with figures of 4/12, capping off a complete team performance. England, despite a fighting 66 from captain Nat Sciver-Brunt, crumbled under pressure and will now look to bounce back to level the series.
