India Wins Historic Women's T20 Series in England 3-2

India secured a historic maiden Women's T20 series victory against England with a 3-2 win, despite losing the final match by five wickets in a last-ball thriller. Shafali Verma's standout performance of 75 runs off 41 balls, including 13 boundaries and a six, was pivotal in setting a competitive total of 167/7 for India. England's chase was anchored by strong opening partnerships, notably from Sophia Dunkley and Danielle Wyatt-Hodge, who gave England a solid start that ultimately led to their narrow victory in the final match. England's head coach Charlotte Edwards acknowledged the challenges faced by her side in the series, noting that India’s wins were dominant and emphasizing that England remains a team in transition ahead of upcoming tournaments. Edwards expressed the need for patience and growth, with the 50-over World Cup and home T20 tournament on the horizon as opportunities for improvement. Despite the final loss, India's overall performance demonstrated resilience and skill, marking a significant achievement in women's cricket.
