Quite a summer in England for Indian cricketers. And not just the playing part. DK impressing everyone around from the com box to Jemimah Rodrigues making her commentary dubut today. 20, nervous yet too good for a kid who’s already put NS in a decent situation with her bat.

Jemimah called it first on commentary and Deepti Sharma is the latest Indian to star in #TheHundred! A come-from-behind win for London Spirit with the help of Deepti’s unbeaten 34 off 23, after she conceded just 10 runs off her 20 balls and dismissed Lizelle Lee and du Preez
