IND-W vs ENG-W 2nd ODI Toss Update: England women will lock horns with India women for the second ODI, which will be held at the Lord's Cricket Ground, where the match was delayed due to incessant rain. But after three hours, the rain finally stopped, and it would be a 29-over match per side. Nat-Sciver Brunt won the toss and chose to bowl first.
At the same time, after losing the series opener in Southampton by four wickets, the hosts will try to make a comeback and keep their hopes alive of winning the three-match ODI series. The Nat Sciver-Brunt-led side couldn't chase India's target and will try to work on their weaknesses during the upcoming match.
The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side is currently leading the series by 1-0 on the back of a brilliant all-round performance during the series opener. Deepti Sharma scored a match-winning knock of 64 runs off 62 balls. Her brilliant knock helped the team chase down the target quite comprehensively.
With everything at stake for the hosts and with the Women in Blue just one match away from winning the series, both teams will try to put their best foot forward at Lord's. The upcoming match promises to be a nail-biting thriller.
Here's the playing XIs of both teams:
