Indian pacer Renuka Singh delivered back to back blows to England Women in the first IND-W vs ENG-W T20 match being played at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Earlier in the match, India Women won the toss and opted to have a bowl first on a good-looking batting track.
“We’re going to bowl first. We want to put pressure on their batters because it’s the first game, sometimes it’s very difficult to know what a good score. Also our team is very confident in chasing. Shreyanka and Saika are playing their first games today. We just want to continue playing good cricket at Mumbai,” said skipper India Women skipper Harmanpreet Kaur.
We would’ve bowled first too. We had a couple of days to acclimatize. We’re looking to build on the things we’ve done in the past year. We did really well in the English summer earlier, showed a lot of intent. Hoping for a big crowd today and hoping to do well,” said England Women skipper Heather Knight.
