India Women Preview

India Women have been in dominant form , winning the first two matches of the series comprehensively and looking well-prepared for the knockout phase. Their bowling unit has been the standout , with Shree Charani, Deepti Sharma, Radha Yadav, and Amanjot Kaur delivering consistent breakthroughs and tight spells.

Smriti Mandhana started the series in style with a fluent century , while Jemimah Rodrigues’ unbeaten 63 in the second T20I gave India a crucial boost when things got tricky. Both will be expected to anchor the innings again here.

However, Shafali Verma , usually a high-impact opener, has struggled so far and needs to find her touch quickly. If she can fire alongside Mandhana, India’s chase becomes even more dangerous.

In the middle order, Harmanpreet Kaur (captain) and Richa Ghosh offer depth and finishing ability. Harmanpreet scored a crucial 48* in the second game, showing composure under pressure.

India’s all-round strength lies in their bowling versatility — seamers and spinners alike can take wickets at key moments. They look like a well-balanced team ready for any situation , and a win here would mark a historic series victory in England.

England Women Preview

England Women come into this must-win clash under pressure after suffering two heavy defeats to India in the first two matches. Despite having a strong batting lineup on paper, they’ve struggled to get past 170 , collapsing multiple times against disciplined Indian bowling.

Captain Nat Sciver-Brunt remains their most reliable batter, scoring 66 off 42 balls in the opening match. She’ll need support from openers Sophia Dunkley and Danielle Wyatt-Hodge , who haven’t delivered consistently yet.

Middle-order batters like Tammy Beaumont (54 ) and Amy Jones (32) * showed promise in the last game but couldn’t convert starts into big scores.

Depth comes from Alice Capsey, Emily Arlott, Sophie Ecclestone , and Lauren Bell , who all chip in with useful cameos. However, their inability to build partnerships has been a major concern.

Their bowling is led by Lauren Bell , who took 2 wickets in the last game , and Sophie Ecclestone , who offers control and variations. Lauren Filer and Linsey Smith provide pace options, but neither has taken the series by storm yet.

If England can fix their top-order issues and bring more consistency to their bowling attack, they might still have a chance to turn things around.

But right now, the pressure is firmly on them as they face a confident Indian side.
