It wasn’t the ideal start, but credit to Yastika to come back in after eight months and play the way she did. She took the game away in the Powerplay. And then of course Jemi doing Jemi things – she batted brilliantly.

n

I thought we could maybe have got 10 more runs but our fielding and bowling was really up to the mark. All the bowlers were brilliant in their execution. They were really calm under pressure.

n

[Nandni Sharma] is simply good. She comes with a variety of hearth and I used to be actually excited to see her bowl at this time.

Jemi and Yastika put on a brilliant partnership and we couldn’t break it early enough. It’s disappointing – we felt were in a good position with the bat at the halfway stage, but we fell away at the end.

n

There are elements of real positivity, especially in the field, but it’s disappointing to not get over the line. We’re really great when we’re on top; it’s just that shift and how to swing momentum back round to us.

n

Tilly was brilliant. I love the way she goes about it and how calm she is.

20th over: England 150-8 (Dean 11, Bell 1) A thumping victory for India in Chelmsford, and plenty for England to think about. There were some positives, particularly the batting of Amy Jones and the bowling of Tilly Corteen-Coleman, but it was an erratic performance overall and England struggled to cope when India put them under severe pressure.

A comedy run-out, why not. Dean and Ecclestone end up at the same end after a mix-up, and the non-striker Ecclestone is the one to go. She stomps off with a face like the apocalypse.

Charlie Dean keeps out the hat-trick delivery – but Nandni gets another wicket soon after with a delicious slower ball that cleans up Issy Wong. India have taken four wickets for nine runs in 11 balls.

Game over. Jones slog-sweeps a slower ball from Nandni Sharma to deep midwicket, where Shafali Verma takes the catch with glee. Jones played excellently to make 67 from 48 balls but there wasn’t enough support and the required rate became prohibitive.

Knight slog-sweeps Charani straight to deep midwicket, where the ultra-reliable Rodrigues takes a comfortable catch. That was a frustrating innings from Knight, and a strike-rate of 92 won’t satisfy those who think she scores too slowly for a modern T20 team.

Dunkley launches Kranti Gaud back over her head for six, but that’s as good as it gets. Two balls later she clunks a cross-bat stroke towards mid-off and is nicely caught on the run by Verma. That’s another frustrating cameo from Dunkley, 16 from 9 balls.

20th over: India 188-7 (Reddy 9, Gaud 1) A single off the last ball, so Lauren Bell ends with figures of 4-0-34-3. Her two-wicket opening over seems a long time ago, thanks mainly to a blistering counter-attack from Yastika Bhatia and Jemimah Rodrigues. India should have enough runs.

The fightback continues. Wong gets a wicket of her own, bowling Fulmali off the pad with an excellent slower ball. It hasn’t been perfect from England, not even close, but the response to adversity from Corteen-Coleman and especially Wong has been admirable.

Tilly Corteen-Coleman gets her first T20I wicket thanks to a sensational catch from Issy Wong! Ghosh got into position to reverse-hoick over short third, but she didn’t get enough on it and Wong charged back to take a truly brilliant running catch.

Two wickets in three balls for England, and this definitely isn’t a blessing in disguse for India. Rodrigues played beautifully and looked on for a century until she popped a leading edge back down the ground and was superbly caught by Dean. With bat or ball, in the field or as captain, she is a gem of a cricketer.

A much needed wicket for England, though it might be a blessing in disguise for India. Bhatia had lost her way after a pulsating start and now she’s on her way. She was dropped by Gibson earlier in the over, a sharp chance in the covers, and was short of her ground when the bowler Dean collected a good throw from Corteen-Coleman and broke the stumps.

2nd over: India 34-2 (Bhatia 21, Rodrigues 0) With no Linsey Smith in the side, Issy Wong shares the new ball. The result is a nightmare for Wong and England. There were three wides early in the over, two of which flew down the leg side to the boundary, and Yastika Bhatia ran with the mood to hit four fours of her own. The first two were sliced deliberately through backward point, and she followed up with drives through mid-off and cover.

Two wickets in the over! After getting off the mark with a streaky mishit over the off side, Shafali Verma drags Bell towards mid-on and is caught by the stooping Alice Capsey.

That was smart bowling from Bell, who followed Verma outside leg stump and cramped her for room.

Smriti Mandhana drives the first ball of the match straight to Charlie Dean at extra cover! It’s a perfect start for England – and the second time in just over a week that Lauren Bell has taken a wicket with the first ball of a T20 series. There’s your statgasm for the night.

The precocious Tilly Corteen-Coleman makes her T20I debut, one of two changes from the series decider against New Zealand on Monday. Lauren Bell also returns to the XI; Linsey Smith is rested and Maia Bouchier has been omitted. England’s batting looks light – presumably by design, to see how Freya Kemp and Dani Gibson fare under pressure in the middle order.

Two stand-in captains at the toss. Smriti Mandhana calls incorrectly and Charlie Dean puts India into the bat. Smriti confirms that Harmanpreet Kaur is being rested today.

What do you get for beating the world champions? An even tougher test a few days later. England started their T20 World Cup build-up with a 2-1 series win over the holders New Zealand; now they face the 50-over world champions, India, in an intriguing three-match series that begins at a sweltering Chelmsford.

Most people have India as second favourites behind Australia to win the World Cup, so this is a litmus test for both teams. But while neither team will want to go into the World Cup on the back of a series defeat, winning and losing is only part of the story. Cricket is an individual game within a team sport, and there are places up for grabs in both teams.

By the time the series finishes at Taunton on Tuesday, Charlotte Edwards and Amol Muzumdar should know their XIs to start the World Cup.
