Women's Cricket World Cup 2022: India hope to land knockout blow on struggling England

Firstpost  

India and England find themselves at the opposite ends of the spectrum at the moment; while India have exhibited the traits of a worthy semi-final contender, England are on the verge of bowing out with three losses in as many games India got their campaign back on track with a dominant display against the West Indies on Saturday, and will look to bring the momentum from that win into their upcoming Women’s World Cup fixture, in which they’ll hope to land the knockout blow on defending champions England in Mount Maunganui on Wednesday. Opener Yastika Bhatia’s attacking 31 off 21 balls gave India a much-needed impetus in the first powerplay, which had been missing in the previous game and though they lost three wickets in quick succession, Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur were able to build on that start and produce a record fourth-wicket stand that took the game away from the Windies. Squads: India: Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Deepti Sharma, Harmanpreet Kaur, Mithali Raj, Richa Ghosh, Sneh Rana, Jhulan Goswami, Meghna Singh, Pooja Vastrakar, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Taniya Bhatia, Poonam Yadav, Renuka Singh, Yastika Bhatia. England: Tammy Beaumont, Danielle Wyatt, Heather Knight, Natalie Sciver, Amy Ellen Jones, Sophia Dunkley, Katherine Brunt, Sophie Ecclestone, Kate Cross, Charlotte Dean, Anya Shrubsole, Natasha Farrant, Emma Lamb, Freya Davies, Lauren Winfield-Hill.
