It’s time for the One Day International series as England women and India women are set to kick off the first game of the three-match series on Sunday (September 18). Hove will host the first ODI between England Women and India women. The game will be played at the County Ground.
England women, led by Amy Jones, in absence of Heather Knight and Nat Sciver, recently won the T20 International series by 2-1. With this victorious rhythm, England will try to seal the ODI series too. India, on the other hand, came close in the T20I series decider in Bristol, but again, England pulled off a win and India, a heartbreak.
