India Women are taking on England Women in the first T20I of the five-match series at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, today. The coin flip in the match went in England's favour who invited the Indian side to bat first. India suffered a huge blow ahead of the match as the regular skipper Harmanpreet kaur has been ruled out of the first match. Smriti Mandhana will be seen leading the Indian side today.   The series holds added importance as it serves as a preparatory step towards the 2026 ICC Women’s World Cup, which will also be held in England.

 

India, who are yet to win a T20I series on English soil, will look to break that pattern under Harmanpreet Kaur’s leadership. Shafali Verma returns to open alongside Smriti Mandhana, while the squad also includes new faces like Kranti Gaud and Sayali Satghare. The absence of experienced pacers Renuka Singh and Pooja Vastrakar due to injuries puts pressure on the young bowling unit. 

 

England, led by Nat Sciver-Brunt, come into the series with a well-rounded squad featuring Tammy Beaumont, Sophie Ecclestone, and rising stars like Alice Capsey and Issy Wong, making this a tough opener for the visitors.
