Nat Sciver-Brunt Ruled Out: Beaumont Takes Charge

England Women's cricket captain Nat Sciver-Brunt has been sidelined from the rest of the T20I series against India owing to a left groin injury. The injury, sustained during a match in Bristol, means Sciver-Brunt will miss the fourth and fifth games of the five-match series.

Team management has confirmed that Tammy Beaumont, who substituted as captain during the third game in Bristol, will continue to lead the squad. Meanwhile, top-order batter Maia Bouchier is set to replace Sciver-Brunt in the team lineup for the remaining games.

Despite the setback, there is optimism about Sciver-Brunt's rehabilitation, with expectations that she will be fit for the upcoming ODI series. As it stands, India leads the T20I series 2-1. The remaining matches will be held in Manchester and Birmingham on July 9 and 11, respectively.
