2 Vodi: Amy Jones led the clinical England for a series-tier win over India at Lord’s. Cricket news
England bounced strongly in the second woman ODI, reduced the last India by eight wickets in the rain -affected struggle at Lord’s on Saturday. Opener Amy Jones led the route with an unbeaten 46, helping the hosts chase the revised target of 115, with a three-match series reduced by 1–1.In the first ODI, after India’s 259 major chase, his batting stumbled into the second as he posted a minor 143/8 in the 29-Over-A Side competition. Smriti Madhana scored the top with 42, but received very little support from the rest of the batting lineup.England’s chase began smoothly, 54 for the initial stand with Jones and Tammy Buomont (35 runs 35). Off-spinner Sneh Rana broke the partnership by implicating the Beomont LBW with a reverse sweep. Jones then jointly combined with the skipper nut skiver-arm (21) to carry the hosts within 42 runs of the win before the rain play.When the action started again, England’s revised DLS target was 115 in 24 overs. Although Kranti Gaud bowled a peach to dismiss the square-kernel, the result was never in doubt. Sophie Dunkley sealed the victory with a border in the 21st over, which completed a major performance from the domestic side.A result required a minimum of 20 overs, and the Lord’s Ground Staff worked fast to ensure that DLS was bowled to bowl enough overs for DLS-Match was not finished in NO-tears.
Earlier, India was never going with the bat. After losing debut opener Pratika Rawal to EM Earlot (2/26) in the second over, Mandal and Harlen Deol (16) added 40 for the second wicket to stabilize the innings.However, Deol’s dismissal – standing and bowled by Sophie Aclestone – depicted a collapse. The left-arm spinner was once again England’s standout, claiming 3/27 that India lost four wickets for just 26 runs in the mid-stage. Mandana, who was dropped to the first two, was eventually rejected for 42, snatching the Charlie Dean inside the circle in the circle.At 98/6, the India was staring at a total of -17 total of a total, but Deepti Sharma (30*) and Arundhati Reddy (14) added 26 important runs for the seventh wicket to give some respect to the score. However, Reddy’s dismissal ended that resistance, and India decreased by an equal score.The third and final ODI will now be played in Durham on 22 July, in which everything will have to be played.
