IND W vs ENG W 4th T20I: Verma, Kaur’s form in focus as India eye series win vs Eng

Shafali Verma and Harmanpreet Kaur

India will hope that skipper Harmanpreet Kaur and hard-hitting opener Shafali Verma can go big in their quest to clinch the women's T20I series during the fourth match here on Wednesday.

India are leading the five-match series 2-1, but England exposed a few chinks in the visitors's armour in the third game at the Oval last week during a five-run victory.

Verma looked in prime touch during a 25-ball 47 while Kaur made a 17-ball 23, but both batters failed to build on their starts, robbing India of some much-needed momentum. They had previously contributed just 47 runs between the them across the first couple of games.

Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues and Amanjot Kaur have so far shouldered India's batting, and they would welcome stronger support from these two experienced campaigners.
