Women’s T20 WC Live: India eye top spot in Group B, face England in Gqeberha.© AFP
IND-W vs ENG-W, Women’s T20 World Cup Live Updates: England are two wickets down against India in this Women’s T20 World Cup Group B match at the St George’s Park in Gqeberha. Renuka Thakur struck twice in the powerplay to leave England tottering after India had opted to bowl. India make one change, bringing in Shikha Pandey to replace Devika Vaidya. As things stand, England sit top of Group B with two wins from two matches, while India are second, only behind on net run-rate. A win would effectively take India into the knock-out stage of the Women’s T20 World Cup. With India’s top-order yet to fire on all cylinders, wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh has stepped up with crucial contributions in both games. The focus, however, will be on the form of Smriti Mandhana, who had missed the opening game against Pakistan and failed to impress in the previous match against the West Indies. (LIVE SCORECARD)

T20 World Cup Live: BOWLED HER!
Capsey is beaten all ends up! This is excellent new-ball bowling from Renuka. Not sure what Capsey was trying because her swing was more on middle and leg while the ball swung in from outside off and the ball hits top of off stump
