Women’s T20 WC: Richa’s Fifty In Vain As India Lose Warm-up Match To England By Five Runs
T20 World Cup: Wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh marked a welcome return to her run-scoring best by hitting a blistering 68 off 36 balls and nearly pulled off a remarkable chase for India. But England held their nerve to secure a tense five‑run victory in the 2026 Women’s T20 World Cup warm-up match at the Sophia Garden on Wednesday.
Before a rain break, India’s bowlers did well to keep a check on England’s scoring rate. But skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt found her rhythm by hitting 57, while wicketkeeper-batter Amy Jones was in fine nick by top-scoring with 64. Danielle Gibson also smashed 30 not out off just 12 balls to take England past 170.
Chasing 172, India faltered early and never looked set to complete the chase. But Richa took charge to hit a sensational knock laced with nine fours and two sixes at a strike-rate of 188.89 to almost single-handedly take India home.
