Spinners sneh rana

Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur: Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur gave credit to her bowlers for securing India a 347-run victory as the country hosted a women's Test match after a gap of nine years, the huge win against England Women at the DY Patil Stadium here on Saturday setting the record for the biggest win by run-margin in the Women's cricket.

The Indian bowlers bundled out England twice in two days, getting them out for 136 and 131 runs respectively in two innings of the one Test match of the current series. Off-spinner Deepti Sharma claimed nine wickets in the match for 37 runs while Pooja Vastrakar picked four. Spinners Sneh Rana, Rajeshwari Gayakwad and debutant pacer Renuka Singh Thakur claimed two wickets apiece in the match as India bowled out England twice for 260-odd runs.

"The credit goes to the bowlers, whatever fields they were given they bowled according to that. Your job (as captain) becomes easier when your bowlers can bowl at the right spots. They bowled according to the plan," said Harmanpreet in the post-match press conference here on Saturday.
