Coming to the match, in the first innings, India registered a massive 333/5 in 50 overs, their highest total on English soil.

Captain Harmanpreet Kaur smashed an unbeaten 143 off 111 balls with 18 fours and four sixes and had a 113-run stand with Harleen Deol, who scored 58 off 72 balls. Opener Smriti Mandhana also played a crucial knock of 40 off 51 balls. Charlie Dean was the leading bowler for England with 1/39. In chase of 334, pacer Renuka Singh (4/57) dismantled English top order.

Danni Wyatt (65), Alice Capsey (39) and captain Amy Jones (39) offered some resistance temporarily, with Wyatt and Capsey stitching a 55-run stand, followed by a 65-run stand between Wyatt and James. But the hosts were nowhere in contention after these two stands and lost wickets quickly.

They lost the game by 88 runs after being bundled out for 245. This is India women’s first ODI series win on English soil since 1999. Harmanpreet’s explosive knock earned her the ‘Player of the Match’ award. The third and final ODI will be played at Lord’s on September 24.
