The duo launched a partnership in a strong case when Mandhan’s Small got out of the brand on the second ball with an elegant cover drive against Lauren Bell. In India, the captain of India added two more boundaries to its sum in the second. On the other hand, Verma, who returned to the Indian team after eight months, gathered her first four against Lauren Filler.
The opening dough also survived the early blow, using DRS to overturn the call in the field after the referee decided, even though the ball hit her helmet instead of a bat. After gaining retribution, Verma further gathered another border on the last ball above.
