India Women 129 (47.5 ov) v England Women 115 (47.2 ov) - India Women won by 14 runs
India have certainly exhibited their dominance as after winning the first match of the five-match One Day International (ODI) series, India went on to win the second game, beating England Women team by 14 runs, at County Ground, Taunton, on Wednesday, July 04.
With striker, KH Brunt, taking four wickets for her team, England still got clobbered for 129 runs by India in 47.5 overs, after the hosts chose to put the tourists to bat.
Considering the strength in England’s batting line-up, this total was good enough to be chased down in a matter of few overs.
However, they had an unexciting start to their innings, losing their first wicket with eight runs on the board, as skipper, CM Edwards, faltered without scoring a run.
Then with the addition of only a run, England lost their second wicket, as number-three batswoman, SJ http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Taylor-c92915, also found her way back to the pavilion without troubling the scorers.
TT Beaumont and A Brindle were then the alpha batswomen from their team, hammering the Indian bowlers, as they sought a batting resurgence.
However, after taking the score to 32 runs, the partnership met its demise on the wicket of A Brindle, who could score only 11 runs.
With three wickets down and without much on the board, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 were losing this run chase and needed to steadfast and hold their own to overcome the required target.
Beaumont and HC Knight then tried to salvage the game, but the Indian bowling was extremely effective as the batswomen could not bat on their own terms.
Knight then was run out after scoring a knock of 10 runs, leaving her side standing on a total of 43 runs.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Justin-Lee-Langer-c69712 Gunn and Beaumont then put up a good fight as they took the score to 77 runs, before the opener was caught behind off the bowling of Sultana, after crafting an innings of 31 runs.
India then exhibited a commanding bowling offensive as they restricted the hosts on a tally of 115 runs in 47.2 overs to win the match.
A Sharma from India was named as the Player of the Match.
