After back-to-back wickets of Wyatt and Beaumont, English all-rounder Natalie Sciver along with skipper Heather Knight took the charge of England’s innings but was not able to do much as Indian spinner Radha Yadav sent Knight back to stand and Sciver was bowled out by Anuja Patil.
The English team had lost half of their wickets before even reaching the landmark of 100 runs in 13 overs. After that, it was just a matter of time that they were bowled out.
It seems Indian squad had learnt from their previous mistake as they did not let any single partnership took place and continue taking wickets.
Notably, India team is out of the tri-nation tournament.
From India, Anuja Patil took three wickets. Poonam Yadav, Radha Yadav and Deepti Sharma took two wickets each. Star all-rounder Pooja Vastraker took one wicket.
