England’s ship, and Amy Jones’ quickfire knock of 23 runs from just 9 balls at a strike rate of 255.56 allowed the Women in Red to post a massive total of 197 runs. Nat Sciver Brunt, the Player of the Match in the first T20i, scored 77 runs from 53 balls, including 13 fours, while her partner at the other end, Danielle Wyatt, scored 75 runs from 47 balls with a strike rate of 159.57.

Debutant Shreyanka Patil finished the match with two wickets but was costly as she conceded 44 runs, while another debutant, Saika Ishaque, also picked up a wicket.
