In the first T20I of the series against the Indian women's side, England showed that they were simply too good with both the bat and the ball.

Digital Desk: The hosts England team crushed Team India in the first of three T20I series matches. England and the Women in Blue will be desperate to mount a comeback in order to stay in the game. The game at Durham was delayed by 30 minutes due to heavy rain, and England understandably elected to bowl after winning the toss.

The match at Durham was delayed by 30 minutes due to heavy rain, and England naturally decided to bowl after winning the toss.

Smriti Mandhana and Deepti Sharma scored some runs, but it wasn't enough as Sarah Glenn went through the Indian batting order, limiting the visitors to 132. Sophia Dunkley, Danni Wyatt, and young rising star Alice Capsey made a mockery of the total, chasing it down in just 13 overs and taking 9 wickets.

Harmanpreet Kaur, the skipper, said that they would have appreciated more runs, but she was dissatisfied with the playing conditions, claiming that there were damp areas all over the ground and the fielders were afraid of harming themselves.

India was one bowler short when Radha Yadav was injured while fielding. However, with the weather forecast to remain dry in Derby, the venue for the second game, the Women in Blue will want to perform well in a must-win situation.
