The umpires make their way to the middle, closely followed by the Indian fielders who gather in a tight huddle as captain Harmanpreet Kaur delivers a final pep talk. England openers Danielle Wyatt-Hodge and Sophia Dunkley stride out with purpose, ready to take on the challenge. Amanjot Kaur has the new ball in hand and will kick off proceedings for India.
Nallapureddy Charani delivered the crucial breakthrough for India in her very first over, dismissing Danielle Wyatt-Hodge for 5. Despite conceding runs, Charani tossed one up invitingly, and Wyatt-Hodge, looking to go big, misjudged the shot. With one hand coming off the bat, she skied it high, and Arundhati Reddy at mid-on ran back to take a sharp tumbling catch, ending the opening stand in style.
A brilliant piece of fielding from Radha Yadav and a smart bowling change by Harmanpreet Kaur saw India strike again as Sophia Dunkley fell for 22. Deepti Sharma tossed one up outside off, tempting Dunkley to go big. She stepped out but wasn’t to the pitch of the ball and ended up slicing it. Radha, stationed at backward point, charged forward and dived low to complete a stunning catch inches above the ground, showcasing India’s sharp fielding on the night.
Indian bowlers have been tight with their length and not giving chances to England batters to score runs. Amanjot Kaur came back to his spell and just gave four runs. From the other end, Arundhati Reddy continues to mix her pace and deceive the batters. However, skipper Tammy Beaumont and Alice Capsey have added 31 runs in the middle.
India Women continued their dominance with the ball as Radha Yadav and Nallapureddy Charani struck in quick succession to dent England's chase. Tammy Beaumont, looking to go big, mistimed a lofted shot off Radha and was caught at long-on by Arundhati Reddy, who grabbed her second catch of the evening. Soon after, Alice Capsey’s struggles ended when she missed a reverse sweep and was trapped plumb in front by Charani. A review confirmed three reds, handing India another crucial breakthrough as Capsey departed for 18.
Amanjot Kaur got the latest wicket for India when she removed Amy Jones for just nine runs. She took 10 balls. England women need to shift gears now to set a big target for India.
