Captain Heather Knight and wicket-keeper Amy Jones contributed total 49 runs to the team’s score as Shakera Selman’s three-wicket haul ensured that England finish at 163/8.

Expert Advice

Stafanie Taylor had a rare off-day in the office during the first T20I. As she returned to the field after a long time, the Caribbean skipper struggled to time the ball well. But, she has scored 359 runs in 15 T20s against England, which is why she could prove to be the ‘X-factor’ player in this game.
