England too strong
Sunita Singh is run out by a direct hit
India lost too many early wickets
One-day international, Beaconsfield: England Women 119-4 (38.2 overs) beat India Women 118 all out (49.5 overs) by six wickets

England's women eased to a six-wicket victory over their Indian counterparts in their one-day international at Beaconsfield.

The match had been arranged after the Test which was scheduled to start on Thursday, was washed out for the first three days meaning no result was really possible.

The Indians, who underperformed badly in the recent tri-series also featuring New Zealand, were bowled out for just 118, one ball short of their allotted 50 overs.

Hemlata Kala put up the most stubborn resistance for the tourists, making 38, but she faced an uphill task after her team had slumped to 33 for four.

Teenager Isa Guha and Clare Connor did the damage for England, finishing with figures of three for 28 and three for 25 respectively.

England openers Charlotte Edwards (54) and Kathryn Leng (46) then knocked off the majority of the required runs, leaving Connor and Dawn Holden to steer their side home with 11 overs to spare.


England Women: C J Connor (capt), M C Godliman (wkt), C M Edwards, K M Leng, S C Taylor, I T Guha, L J Harper, D Holden, M A Reynard, N Shaw, C E Taylor

India Women: A Chopra (capt), S Naik (wkt), M Raj, N David, D M Kulkarni, H Kala, M Maben, J Sharma, J Goswami, S Singh, S A Paranjpe
