Earlier, put in to bat, the Indian eves started off with openers Pum Raut (86) and Smriti Mandha (90) putting up a 144-run stand in 27 overs. But just when the going seemed good, Mandha was sent packing by off-spinner Heather Knight. Mandha, who slammed 11 boundaries and two sixes, was caught at midwicket by Danielle Hazell.
