Milestone
That's it from our coverage of the 2nd T20 international between India and England but there is more action coming up from all over the world. So stay tuned on our network. Until then, here's our team of commentators Ninaad Dixit, Akshay Bhide and scorers/analysts Vishnu Verma, Chandan Kumar Singh and Yogesh Kumar.
Charlie Dean (Player of the Match): "Really happy with how the game played out. All the bowlers around me make it so much easier to settle in and be comfortable out there.

In T20 I find it really important to get stuck bowling the same ball over and over so varying the pace.

Ideally I want to bowl at the stumps but not quite really there but that's first and foremost and I guess again a gut feel on where I think people want to hit me and go from there."
Charlie Dean is the player of the match.
Heather Knight (England Captain): "Yeah. It was a brilliant series win. The crowd has been outstanding. When the wickets fell, they got right behind the home team but a nice experience for our girls playing in those situations.

Charlie does that pretty well. She has bowled many times in the powerplay and did a fine job. The wicket was a bit different and I thought our bowlers did very well to restrict them to 80.

We have to read the conditions. It was tough in the end. The ball was spinning and seaming. Renuka bowled really well. It was challenging but the job was to get across the line and we did it. Ideally, we wouldn't want to lose these many wickets but happy to win.

There is a Test match coming up after the series. We will look to finish the T20I series on a winning note and carry forward the winning momentum into the Test."
Harmanpreet Kaur (India Captain): "Another 30-40 runs could have made the difference. I am proud of our team. We've fought till the end, we didn't give them anything easily.

We always want to go with a positive approach but unfortunately some of us didn't read the ball well and they also bowled really well, not giving us anything easily but in the end of the game we always sit and keep thinking about what we could have done better but I am proud of the team. The way we bowled and we were showing energy while fielding.

After losing early wickets we just thought if we are able to set 120 runs on the board it would have made a huge difference but unfortunately we failed while batting but I guess our bowlers were ready to take up the challenge and they were bowling the way we wanted them to."

Alice Capsey: "Yeah. It was tight in the end but the main thing was we got across the line and secured the series. Delighted with it. We haven’t played the perfect game yet and it’s a good thing with one game to go.

Dean was brilliant. Obviously missed out in the first game with a stomach bug but to come in and start with the way she did was fantastic. Pick the wicket of Smriti as we know how dangerous she can be. It was good.

Half of the girls were at home whereas half of the girls were in Australia. We didn’t know what to expect but glad we came out on top. To clean-sweep the series is the plan."
9:34 PM: A disastrous game for the Indian side as they get plundered by 4 wickets by the visiting England side at Wankhede Stadium to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three match T20I series.

England skipper Heather Knight called it right at the toss and elected to bowl first. Four English bowlers picked up 2 wickets each with the rest of 2 taking one apiece to bundle the hosts out for 80 in 16.2 overs.

It was a straightforward chase for the England batting order who had hit over 190 on the same surface a few nights ago. There was plenty of swing for Renuka Singh who after a wayward start, picked up 2 wickets in her second over.

Nat Sciver-Brunt and Alice Capsey continued the assault and added 41 runs for the third wicket clinching the game completely from the Indian side. Pooja Vastrakar broke the stand with 20 more runs required.

India wasted another review with Deepti Sharma appealing unsuccessfully against Alice Capsey who opted for a reverse sweep and missed. But the batter was dismissed just a few deliveries later when the substitute fielder Amanjot Kaur picked up one out of thin air in the covers.

Amy Jones departed soon after playing a reverse sweep straight to third man with Deepti getting on a hattrick removing Freya Kemp first ball. Sophie Ecclestone and skipper Knight hung around and then took England to the win with 52 deliveries to spare.

Deepti (2/4 in 2 overs) was the pick of the bowlers with Renuka Singh (2/26) bowling a good spell as well. Pooja Vastrakar (1/7) and Saika Ishaque (1/21) had one wicket to their names but there were never enough runs on the board to put a challenge.

The teams will play tomorrow evening at the same venue for a dead rubber. Hang around for the post match presentation
