On the back of her brilliant batting, she won the player of the match award, helping India chase a total of 262 runs. The Women in Blue defeated the host nation by four wickets and managed to register their second-highest successful chase in women’s cricket ODI history.
During her 62-run knock, the left-hander struck a single-handed maximum against Lauren Bell towards the deep midwicket region. Thinking about a brilliant shot, India’s star all-rounder credited Rishabh Pant, who’s known for hitting similar one-handed big sixes.
“I play these shots in practice. I got that shot from Rishabh Pant. I like that shot,” Deepti said during the post-match press conference.
That shot became even more special as it was the only six of the match. Throughout the innings, Deepti showed a lot of patience, but when she got it in her radar, she did not shy away from opening her hands.

The 27-year-old all-rounder came out to bat when the Indian team was reeling at 124/4. She went on to forge a 90-run partnership with Jemimah Rodrigues. Deepti and Rodrigues gathered a lot of runs and were excellent while running between the wickets.
Amanjot Kaur also chipped in with a crucial 20 runs off 14 balls, ensuring her team’s victory with 11 balls to spare in the ODI opener against England.
Previously, the English team posted a total of 258 runs after 50 overs, riding on the knocks of Sophia Dunkley’s 83 and Alice Davidson-Richards’ 53. Nat Sciver-Brunt also played a vital hand of 41, helping her team post a fighting total. For India, Sneh Rana and Kranti Gaud scalped two wickets each.
The high-octane action will now shift to Lord’s, which will host the second of this three-match ODI series on Saturday, 19 July.
