14:44 IST: The Pitch conditions: After the month of May, the pitch will be used today in the World Cup finals. It may get drier as the game progresses on, says Ian Bishop.
14: 29 IST Both the sides remain unchanged for the big clash.
Squads
England Women (Playing XI): Lauren Winfield, Tammy Beaumont, Sarah Taylor(w), Heather Knight(c), Natalie Sciver, Fran Wilson, Katherine Brunt, Jenny Gunn, Laura Marsh, Anya Shrubsole, Alex Hartley
India Women (Playing XI): Smriti Mandhana, Punam Raut, Mithali Raj(c), Harmanpreet Kaur, Deepti Sharma, Veda Krishnamurthy, Sushma Verma(w), Jhulan Goswami, Shikha Pandey, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Poonam Yadav
14:27 IST It’s toss time. English captain Heather Knight flips the coin. England win toss and opts to bat first.
Hello and Welcome to inUth.com, I am Ankit Banerjee and I will take you through the live updates of the India vs England Women’s World Cup Final at Lords. Mithali Raj-led India come into this match on the back of a historic victory against defending champions Australia. India trounced Australia by 36 runs, thanks to a scintillating 171* off 115 balls by Harmanpreet Kaur. England, on the other hand, are the hosts, well acquainted with the conditions. They happen to be the defending runner-up from the last edition of the Women’s World Cup.
This has been a dream tournament for the batters from India. All the top four batswomen have centuries to their name while they head into the big match. The bowlers, especially the spinners have won India games single-handedly in the tournament. But playing in unison has been the factor that has seen India progress so deep into the tournament. Now, Indian eves are just one step away from creating history.
It has been a great comeback for England after they had a torrid outing last year. Mark Robinson, just a few months after he was made the coach, took the big call of chucking out Charlotte Edwards. The captaincy was promptly passed on to Heather Knight at a time when the team was undergoing slight transition. Sarah Taylor’s return, after she took time away from the game to deal with anxiety, and her form in front and behind the stumps, has been one of the stories of the tournament.
But it looks like it will be advantage India, because of two reasons.
They have defeated England in the tournament opener.
India will be high on confidence after defeating Australia in the semi-finals.
Harmanpreet injury: She had picked up a shoulder injury but looks like she will be fit in time for the big game.
Weather: The predictions are that it will remain a bright and sunny day. But with London, only a fool can predict. But there is a reserve day in store.
Pitch: The pitch will have to offer something for the bowlers in the first hour, but as the game progresses it will flatten out.
