England start with spin and Shafali Verma goes for a duck. Charlie Dean was on the money from the word go and that ball did not spun as Verma was looking for in the second ball of the inning.

It looked out. Although Shafali was looking for a DRS, luckily Smirit denied her to go for a DRS. Not a great start for India.

India 2/1 after the first over.
