Women’s World Cup: Fifties From Smriti, Harman In Vain As England Beat India To Enter Semis

By IANS News October 19, 2025 • 22:44 PM View: 754

ODI World Cup: In a match that swung like a pendulum, England held their nerve to break India’s hearts by clinching a thrilling four-run win at the Holkar Stadium on Sunday and book their place in the semi-finals of the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup.

Smriti Mandhana’s elegant 88, along with Harmanpreet Kaur’s amazing 70 and Deepti Sharma’s late fifty, had seemingly set India on course for securing their highest chase in women’s ODIs. But the fall of Smriti and Deepti turned a straightforward pursuit into a royal mess, as India ended up at 284/6 in a chase of 289.
