India W in the second ODI trampled England W by a massive margin of 88 runs. This was only possible with the overall effort made by the Women In Blue. However, Harmanpreet Kaur’s unbeaten 143 off 111 and Renuka Thakur’s four-wicket haul deserve special attention. Moreover, the victory helped the India Women’s team register a series win against England after 23 long years. Star Indian batter Smriti Mandhana comments on the team’s performance post the historic victory as she wrote, “Lord’s, next. Looking forward to ending the series on a positive note. We march on.”
