India Women are riding a wave of momentum and confidence as they head into the first ODI of the three-match series against England Women at The Rose Bowl in Southampton on Wednesday, July 16. The high-voltage match will begin at 5:30 PM IST.

England Women

After narrowly losing the T20I series 3-2, England Women will be eager to bounce back in the 50-over format. Led by the experienced Nat Sciver-Brunt, the hosts boast a balanced squad with experience campaigners and dynamic youngsters. With players like Tammy Beaumont, Amy Jones and Sophie Ecclestone in the mix, they will aim to strike first in this crucial three-match ODI series.

India Women

Fresh off a historic T20I series win in England, Harmanpreet Kaur and co. will be brimming with belief. They have done it before in this format. India swept the hosts 3-0 in 2022 and will now look to repeat history. With in-form players like Smriti Mandhana, Pratika Rawal, Deepti Sharma and Sneh Rana among others, the Women in Blue have the firepower to make it count.

How Will The Rose Bowl Pitch Behave?

Expect a typically flat surface at The Rose Bowl in Southampton, ideal for stroke-play. The average run rate in Women’s ODIs here stands at 4.09, which means a score of around 250 will be a winning score. Seamers might enjoy some early swing with the new ball while spinners will need to stick to tight lines and lengths. Interestingly, two of the three Women’s ODIs at this venue have been won by the chasing side so it wouldn’t be a surprise if the toss-winning skipper opts to bowl first.

Players To Watch Out For In ENG-W vs IND-W 1st ODI

England Women

Tammy Beaumont

Tammy Beaumont has piled up 445 runs in her last 9 ODIs at an impressive average of 55.63 and a strike rate of 92.32. Expect her to anchor the innings at the top.

Amy Jones

Amy Jones, the in-form keeper-batter has scored 437 runs in her last 9 matches, averaging a stellar 87.4 with a strike rate of 98.64. Her role in the middle order will be key for England.

Sophie Ecclestone

England’s spin spearhead, Sophie Ecclestone, has grabbed 12 wickets in her last 6 ODIs at a miserly economy of 4.02. She will be a constant threat in the middle overs for India.

India Women

Smriti Mandhana

One of the most consistent performers, Smriti Mandhana has amassed 570 runs in her last 10 matches at an average of 57 and strike rate of 109.4. The southpaw was in terrific form in the T20I series as she ended as the leading run-scorer and she will look to carry that form in the ODIs as well.

Pratika Rawal

A breakout star, Pratika Rawal, with 598 runs in her last 10 ODIs at an average of 66.44 and a strike rate of 93.29, has been simply sensational. If she gets going at the top, England bowlers will be in for a ling day.

Sneh Rana

India’s go-to spinner, Sneh Rana has bagged 15 wickets in her last 5 ODIs at an economy of 4.74 and an impressive strike rate of 17.73. Her bowling in the middle overs will be important for India.
