tucks this to short fine and they scamper a run
ENG Women vs IND Women, 1st T20I at Guwahati, ENG-W in IND, Mar 04 2019 - Match Result
Huge win for England, fourth successive T20I loss for India. At no stage did they look like chasing this total, or even making an attempt to get these runs. The middle order's frailties once again stood exposed against a superior England bowling line-up.
In the absence of Jhulan Goswami, who has retired from the shortest format, India's bowling looked toothless. Shikha clearly the best batsman and bowler on the day for the hosts. For England, a solid opening from Wyatt and Beaumont followed by Knight's beligerence at the end proving to be the massive difference.
Lots to think of for the captain-coach duo of Mandhana and Raman as we build into the next two T20Is. Join us shortly for the post-match presentation

length ball outside off, leaves as she had made too much room
sees the batsman trying to make room and slips this full delivery towards her toes, Shikha now tries and gets away by moving to the off side, just avoids it
