(Twitter/ICC)The spin duo of Poonam Yadav and Deepti Sharma scripted India’s dramatic comeback with tidy death over spells that helped the visitors level the series with an eight-run win over England in the second women’s T20 here on Sunday. Shafali Verma’s 48 off 38 balls had allowed India to post 148 for four after being put in to bat. Leggie Poonam ended with figures of two for 17 in four overs and Deepti one for 18 in four overs. An out of form Harmanpreet (31 off 25), who promoted herself to number three, and Deepti Sharma (24 off 27) found it tough to maintain the scoring rate. A few much needed boundaries from Deepti and Sneh Rana got India close to the 150-run mark.
