IND W V ENG W: Deepti's 5-7; Harman's 44* Help India Take Control As 19 Wickets Fall On Day 2
DY Patil Stadium: Deepti Sharma bamboozled the batters to claim a maiden fifer (5 for 7), as India Women bundled out England for 136 and then raised 186/6 in their second innings to take total control of the four-day one-off Test at the DY Patil Stadium here on Friday.
It was a strange second day of action as India, who posted 428 in their first innings, gained a lead of 292 runs and decided to bat instead of forcing a follow-on. They ended the second day at 186/6 off 42 overs to extend their lead to 478 runs with two days to go.
At stumps, India skipper Harmanpreet was batting on 44 off 67, hoping to score her maiden half-century on the third day. Pooja Vastrakar was keeping her company with 17, as they raised 53 runs off 85 balls for the seventh wicket. For England, Charlie Dean claimed 4-68 while Sophie Ecclestone got 2-76.
