Harmanpreet Kaur says she is fine with her injury. Adds they improved as a team. Shares the wicket was tricky to bat as some of the ball were turning and some were going straight. Reckons they targeted a couple of bowlers while chasing.
...Presentation time...
England Women made quite a few changes to their side. With the series already under the belt, they tested a few things. Although they were too conservative with their batting. They could have scored 15-20 more runs but there were too many dot balls. Heather Knight scored a fifty but it was on a slower side. However, the way India bowled throughout, it didn't give much chance for England to shift the gears.
A comfortable win in the end for India and they do take some consolation prize from this series. The bowlers did a really good job in the start. They could have kept England Women near 100 but still had things covered. Renuka Singh ended with two wickets while Saika Ishaque and Shreyanka Patil ended with three each. In reply, it was Smriti Mandhana who anchored the innings for a long part. She fell two short of her fifty but the job was half-done till then. Harmanpreet Kaur did the finishing jobs for her team.
