Hello and welcome to CricketCountry’s live blog of the first One-Day International between India women and England women at Scarborough. I am Sudatta Mukherjee and I will be bringing the live updates of the match. Indian women’s team is on a high after the Test win at Wormsley a few days back. It was an inspiring performance from the Indians. They were playing a Test after eight years with as many as eight debutants.

Though England are a strong team on paper, the only Test showed that things can be different in reality. Indian women would’ve taken a lot of confidence from that win and they will surely carry it along in the limited overs matches.

The team is scheduled to play three ODIs in the series. Two of them will be played at Scarborough and the tour will end with the third ODI at Home of Cricket, Lord’s. The series is part of the Women’s World Championships. So far one match has been played in the championship with Australia defeating Pakistan convincingly at Brisban today.
