Ind VS Eng: Radha Yadav achieves an amazing capture to reject Amy Jones – Watch | Cricket news
Radha Yadav managed a spectacular dive to reject Amy Jones in the final, but it was not enough because England was ahead of India by five counters in a biting finish at the fifth T20i in Birmingham. Despite the defeat, India won the five 3-2 series series, marking its very first victory in the T20I series against England. Chasing 168, in England, with the operators Sophia Dunkley (46) and Danielle Wyatt-Hodge (56) adding 101 points in just 10.4 Overs. India has rebounded with fast counters, and with six points necessary for the last, the drama took place. The Arundhati Reddyi stimulator played Tammy Beaumont with a slower shorter ball, then rejected Amy Jones next to the next ball when Radha Yadav plunged forward of the short fine leg to complete a shiny bass plug. India has felt a late touch with England needing five out of three balls. But Sophie Ecclestone and Paige Scholfield kept their nerves to guide England at home during the final delivery. Earlier, India posted 167 for 7 after a flamboyant of 75 balls of 41 balls from Shafali Verma. She struck 13 ovens and six, reaching her fifty in just 23 balls – the second faster by an Indian in T20is. The contributions of Harmanpreet Kaur (15), Richa Ghosh (24) and Radha Yadav (14) helped India establish a competitive total. India may have lost the final match, but the victory of the series was historic. The two teams are now preparing for an ODI series of three games from July 16 in Southampton.
