England Women were expected to do well with the ball but were just not able to control the pace. Either too wayward or too inconsistent. However, they have the momentum now with a really good first hour from them. Lauren Bell and Sophie Ecclestone were the pick with three wickets each. England will now hope to bat long and score as much runs as possible till the end of the day.

So, a not was added on Day 2 by India and England will be really happy with how they started Day 2 as compared to Day 1. It was too inaccurate from England at the start and it cost them as India built partnerships one after the other. Apart from the openers, all of them chipped in. Fur batters fell in the 60s, Kaur missed out on her fifty by a run while Rana chipped in with 30 runs.
