England reached 168 for five and restricted India to 142 for nine to win the second T20 international by 26 runs at Bristol. The victory squared the series at one match each. An unbeaten 39 from 13 balls by one England batter, supported by 39 runs from the final two overs, produced the total. Two fielding errors by India contributed to the scoring.
India elected to retire one batter on 33 from 36 balls while chasing 169. The move led to three quick wickets and a total of 142 for nine. England took two wickets for 15 runs in two overs from one of their bowlers, including the dismissal of an India opener.
The match drew a record crowd of 4,463 spectators for a women’s international at the venue. The deciding match is scheduled for Taunton on Tuesday before both teams prepare for the World Cup that begins on 12 June.
