India Women vs England Women Preview:

India Women( IND-W ) is set to face England Women( ENG-W ) in their 20th match during the ICC Womens World Cup 2025. This match is scheduled to take place at the Holkar Cricket Stadium on Sunday, October 19.

Harmanpreet Kaur and her team will be under pressure going into this clash. After back-to-back defeats, including a narrow 3-wicket loss to Australia Women, India’s bowlers have come under scrutiny for their inconsistent performances. A win here is crucial for improving their position on the points table, and Kaur will be hoping for a strong showing from her bowlers to turn the tide.

At the top, Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal shared a 155-run partnership in the previous game, and the team will look to them for a similar solid start. The experienced middle-order trio of Harleen Deol, Jemimah Rodrigues, and Harmanpreet Kaur will aim to build key partnerships, while explosive batter Richa Ghosh, alongside Amanjot Kaur and Deepti Sharma, will provide quickfire runs lower down the order.

The Indian bowling unit has its work cut out. Amanjot Kaur and Kranti Gaud struggled with the new ball in the last match, and they’ll need to step up to put England Women under pressure early. In the middle overs, Deepti Sharma and Sneh Rana will have to use the conditions smartly, while Shree Charani and Kaur will be expected to perform as the fifth bowler in this must-win encounter.

For England, Nat Sciver-Brunt’s side had a fortunate escape against Pakistan Women when rain intervened, leaving them with little to defend. This game promises to be tougher as they face India in familiar conditions. Sitting second on the points table, England will aim to secure a win to strengthen their semifinal hopes.

The batting lineup needs to fire after a subdued performance in the last match. Openers Amy Jones and Tammy Beaumont will be expected to provide a solid start, while captain Heather Knight will anchor the innings in the middle order alongside Nat Sciver-Brunt and Sophia Dunkley. Quick scoring from Emma Lamb, Alice Capsey, and Charlotte Dean in the lower middle order could prove decisive.

On the bowling front, Linsey Smith and Nat Sciver-Brunt will look to make early inroads against India’s openers, while Charlotte Dean and Sophie Ecclestone aim to disrupt the middle order with their variations. The addition of Alice Capsey and Heather Knight adds further depth and versatility, making England’s attack a formidable challenge.

The pitch at Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore is generally a batsman-friendly surface that offers consistent bounce and good carry throughout the innings. Stroke players can expect the ball to come onto the bat nicely, allowing for smooth timing and easy boundary opportunities, particularly in the middle overs.
