Skipper Mithali Raj led from the front with an unbeaten 74 as India Women outclassed England by eight wickets in the third and final One Day International in Nagpur to clinch the series 2-1. India had won the first match by one wicket while England had levelled the series after they defeated the hosts by eight wickets in the second game. Off-spinner Deepti Sharma (2-35), left-arm orthodox bowler Rajeshwari Gayakwad (2-32) and leg spinner Poonam Yadav (2-47) were among the wickets. After the left-handed Mandhana was retired hurt, Deepti Sharma joined the captain and the two took India home. After losing the T20 tri-series, which also involved Australia apart from England, and the ODI series to the Southern Stars, India finally found the winning momentum against England.
