In a dramatic culmination to the Women's T20 series against England, India registered a historic series victory with a 3-2 win. Despite losing the inconsequential final game by five wickets, the Indian team showcased resilience and skill.
Sent in to bat, Shafali Verma's dynamic innings of 75 gave India a competitive total of 167/7. Her quick-fire innings featured 13 boundaries and a six, with her 23-ball half-century marking the second joint-fastest by an Indian woman in WT20s.
England's openers provided a strong start in their chase. Despite a fightback by India, dismissing both openers, England's Tammy Beaumont and Maia Bouchier ensured their side crossed the line, concluding on the last ball thriller.
