Skipper Heather Knight's blitzkrieg powered England to a comfortable 27-run win over New Zealand in the first T20I of the five-match series at the University Oval on Tuesday.
Former England skipper Nasser Hussain believes that England's women's cricket team is in a good position and they can continue to grow as young players continue to learn.
With this win, GT is at the fourth position in the table with one win in three games and two points. RCB has lost all of their three games and are yet to earn a point
Deol was the highest run scorer for GG with 67 while Dunkley played a superb knock of 65 runs in 28 deliveries. For RCB, Shreyanka Patil and Heather Knight bagged two wickets respectively.
Electing to bat first, England was off to a poor start. Opener Sophia Dunkley (2) and Alice Capsey (6) were dismissed quickly before the conclusion of powerplay, reducing England to 33/2
England rested key players Nat Sciver, Amy Jones, and Sophie Ecclestone in Barbados before defending a total of 141 for 6 with ease against a struggling home bowling line-up.
Indian bowlers made quick inroads into the batting of the English lineup not allowing the hosts to make use of the powerplay overs. India struck in the eight over after Meghna Singh dismissed Emma Lamb for 12, drawing first blood.
