England win by four wickets. That was a lacklustre finish. England did enough but they had luck on their side. A couple of decisions went their way and a some missed opportunities in the field might have made it a bit closer. Credit to Nat Sciver though who took control of the chase with a fine half-century. Rajeshwari Gayakwad was again outstanding with the ball but in the end it was too small a total to defend. Anya Shrubsole is Player of the Match for her 3 for 31.
England move to the top of the table. India must win tomorrow against Australia to have any hope of making the final. Join us at the Junction Oval for that game. Until then, bye for now.

Baskar: "The reason women's cricket doesn't have DRS, would come down to us. The more interest people show on women's cricket, the more revenue it gives to the game, and more facilities their games get."
