Ecclestone and Dunkley lead England to victory
The Guardian|September 16, 2022
England sealed their T20 series against India in emphatic fashion at Bristol, winning by seven wickets with 10 balls to spare as Sophia Dunkley (49 off 44) and Alice Capsey (38 not out off 24) easily chased down the 123 runs required.

Ecclestone and Dunkley lead England to victory

Two days on from being utterly dominant with the bat in Derby, India became bafflingly poor yesterday, stuttering to 35 for five in the opening 10 overs. Two of their top five made ducks and none of their Derby match winners - Shafali Verma, Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur - could get out of single figures.

Richa Ghosh, perhaps with a point to prove after her bizarre omission from India's Commonwealth Games squad, did her best to rescue the innings with a quickfire 33 off 22 at the back end. But Sophie Ecclestone (three for 25), having already seen off Sneh Rana and Deepti Sharma, added to her list of scalps by trapping Ghosh lbw in the penultimate over.

In reply England raced to 45 without loss in the powerplay thanks to more powerful hitting from Dunkley. Though she was bowled by Pooja Vastrakar in the 12th trying to slog her 50th run across the line, Capsey finished the job with her usual panache.
