Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | Eng Win- What's ahead for India now?

 

The Indian team will now face Australia in their next affair, their fifth game of this World Cup on March 19, which is just two days away from this morale breaking loss. But they can take heart from it and consider it as one-off days, come back in the next game, do the basics right and then let there be the victory for the team that performs well on all levels. They can take inspiration from their rivals England today, who came back in a marvellous style after three close losses. 

 

The game against Australia will be a very tough challenge no doubt. But India have been the only team in recent time to beat the Aussie in an ODI. Hence they can draw inspiration from that as well and come out fighting in Auckland. On that note, we at BS Web take your leave from the coverage of this India vs England game at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. 

 

We will be back again on March 19, 2022, at 05:30 am IST which will be one hour prior to the start of India vs Australia game at 06:30 am IST. Till then, Thank You for tuning and do join us on the 19th.

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | Big Failure for India

 

It was yet another big failure with the bat for the Indian team as it was bowled out for a minimal 134. It once again proved that if either Smriti or Harman didn't fire, the other players were not able to score against quality bowling as was evident in the match against New Zealand.

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | Big win for England

 

The England team started their chase in a very bad manner losing both its openers on the score of just four runs. But then, Nat Sciver and skipper Knight put up a great partnership and though Sciver got out, Knight made sure that she was there at the end to see her team home. England won the match in only 31.2 overs and raised their net run rate considerably even as they lost six wickets trying to achieve the total as quickly as possible. But it was worth it in the end

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | ENG 136-6 | Over 31.2- Four and Eng win

 

Sophie Ecclestone has pulled this over mid-wicket and it goes all the way for four. With this shot, England have now registered their first win in this World Cup 2022. Ecclestone and skipper Heather Knight remain not out as her team win this game by four wickets, but most importantly with 112 balls remaining to push their net run rate way up and bring down that of India's.

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | ENG 129-6 | Over 30- A couple of wickets for Meghna

 

And Meghna SIngh has removed Sophia Dunkley as the batter wanted to guide down the short third-man region for four. But instead, all that the batter could manage was get an edge and Richa Ghosh behind the stumps did the rest and Meghna has yet another wicket. 

 

And another one. This is insane batting from Brunt. She could have played it well for a single or left it, but the batter goes for the pull on a ball that was always rising on her and Richa Ghosh takes yet another catch and England are now six down for 128

11:25 AM

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | ENG 122-4 | Over 28- Fifty for Knight

 

Four!! That is the classic cover drive from England captain Heather Knight as the English batters keep nibbling away at the target. Only 21 more are needed for the win now. 

 

Fifty for Knight!! Now that is more like it from the England captain. She was not in form coming into the World Cup and in the first three games too, she was hardly able to make any contribution. But now with this fifty, she is back in form. 

 

And at the end of the 28th over, England now need just 13 more to win

11:15 AM

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | ENG 102-4 | Over 24.4- Harman with a stunner

 

And that is a brilliant catch from Harmanpreet Kaur as she backtracks and takes the catch with one hand to dismiss Jones who was threatening to finish this game in the next couple of overs. Jones went down the crease and wanted to lift it above Harman at mid-on but wasn't able to do so at the end. The fourth wicket goes now and England still need 33 runs 

11:12 AM

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | ENG 102-3 | Over 24.3- 100 Up, Six!! from Amy Jones

 

Amy Jones has now come out all guns blazing as she comes down the crease and raises it above the bowler's head for a six, the first six of the England innings as it also brings up the 100 for England and now they are just 33 away from their first win of the World Cup.  

11:07 AM

Live | India W vs England W | CWC 2022 | ENG 88-3 | Over 23- England easing into victory

 

The England team now need only 47 runs with two well-settled players in Heather Knight and Amy Jones at the crease and 27 overs left to make those runs, they fancy themselves getting a big win and marching ahead in the World Cup which has so far been very distasteful for the defending champions.
