In a dominant performance at Trent Bridge, India defeated England by 97 runs in the first women’s T20I of the series. Stand-in captain Smriti Mandhana led from the front, scoring a breathtaking 112 off 62 balls—her maiden T20I century. This innings made her the first Indian woman to score centuries in all three international formats: Tests, ODIs, and T20Is. India posted a commanding total of 210/5, their second-highest in T20Is. Debutant spinner Shree Charani impressed with figures of 4/12, dismantling the English batting line-up. England crumbled under pressure and were bowled out for just 113 in 14.5 overs. (PC: Reuters)
