Nat steadied the innings really well and then Amy was outstanding. It shows our batting depth, even after losing three wickets it does not matter, we can put up a score," said Knight in a post-match presentation."Renuka Thakur was outstanding and was nipping the ball both ways, but keeping a positive mindset helps to manipulate the field. We haven't played against a big team recently and to go out and play like that was really good. There are a lot of people in form; Sophie and Sarah were excellent with the ball. Now we will look to top the group. Our ground fielding was outstanding and the best so far. We dropped a couple of catches but that can happen in these big games," added the skipper.Coming to the match, put into bat first by India, a fiery spell by Renuka reduced England to 29/3.Knocks from Nat Sciver Brunt (50 off 42 balls), wicketkeeper-batter Amy Jones (40 off 27 balls) and skipper Heather Knight (28 off 23 balls) helped England recover and put up a fighting total of 151/7.Renuka was top-notch with the ball, taking 5/15 in her four overs.
