EN-W vs IN-W: The first T20I between England Women and India Women saw India's stand-in captain, Smriti Mandhana, write her name in the record books. She slammed the first century for India in women's T20 internationals. She scored 112 runs off 62 balls, with 15 fours and three sixes, and took India to win by a record 97-run win.
Now, the visitors have a 1-0 lead, with the second game scheduled for July 1 (Tuesday). The live action of the second game will begin at 11 PM IST from County Ground, Bristol. With a hammering defeat in the first game, the hosts have a lot to think about. Only the captain, Nat Sciver-Brunt, looked in control and scored 66 runs off the 113 scored by the whole team.
The other players need to step up, or else it will be another defeat for the team. On the other hand, India have a great chance to move near a historic series win. One more win can give them a massive edge over England.

Dream11 Prediction: The first defeat was a confidence killer, and England need to address a lot of areas. The bowlers gave a lot of freebies to the Indian batters, and they capitalized on them. The fielding was below par, and they let go of some chances. Then, their batting was very poor.
India ticked almost all the boxes and will be riding high on confidence ahead of this game. They have a chance to get a 2-0 win. The toss will also be crucial because chasing can be hard. If England can somehow stop Mandhana, then they have a great chance. Meanwhile, we will back England Women to bounce back and win the second game.
