London, Sep 25 (Ians) Indian women’s cricket team gave a fitting farewell to legendary fast bowler Jhulan Goswami, on her last international game, with a 16-run victory in a low-scoring third and final T20I and 3-0 series whitewash over England at Lord’s on Saturday.
With this, India also maintained their winning streak in the Icc Women’s Championship 2022-25.
Led by a brilliant bowling display, India defended 169 at the Lord’s in dramatic fashion as they got the last England wicket via runout at the non-striker’s end.
With England requiring 17 runs to win, Charlotte Dean, who fought hard with an 80-ball 47, backed up too far at the non-striker’s end and Deepti removed the bails to leave the batter in tears and those watching in shock.
Earlier, put into bat, India were reduced to 29/4. However, they recovered with Smriti Mandhana (50) and Deepti Sharma (68 not out) stitching together a crucial half-century stand.

London, Sep 22 (Ians) Led by Harmanpreet Kaur’s fifth Odi century, India women’s cricket team defeated England by 88 runs in the second Odi at the St Lawrence Ground in Canterbury to clinch their maiden limited overs series in the country in 23 years.
The Indian skipper registered her second highest Odi score – an unbeaten 111-ball 143, an innings which included 18 boundaries and 4 sixes.
Harmanpreet’s master class hundred powered India to post their all-time second highest total of 333/5, after being put into bat on September 21. England were in control till the end of 40 overs, but a late surge by India turned into a nightmare for England’s young bowling attack.
England got an early breakthrough as Kate Cross cleaned up Shafali Verma cheaply for eight. But Smriti Mandhana and No.3 Yastika Bhatia were quick in recovery. Mandhana didn’t hold back on the attack.
