Commonwealth games 2022: India storms to final pipping England

India is one step closer to winning the gold in the Commonwealth games 2022. The women’s team pipped England in the semifinal clash that happened today.

India batted first in the clash. Smriti Mandhana batted with positive intent though Shafali Verma fell for a very low score. The opening partnership stormed to 76 runs in just 7.5 overs. Though Smriti fell the very next over, Jemimah continued the good work. India managed a competitive score of 164 runs.
Chasing a decent total, England scored 28 runs for the first wicket. D Wyatt scored at a rapid pace and took 63 runs in the 7th over. Deepthi Sharma and Sneh Rana bowled tight lines and haven’t provided breathing space for England.
With 14 runs required off the final over, Sneh Rana bowled a super tight over and gave away only 9 overs. India will face the winner of Australia and New Zealand in the second semifinal.
