The India Women’s Cricket Team is all set to tour England for a five-match T20I series starting June 28 and ending on July 12, 2025. This tour marks India’s return to English soil for the first time since 2022, where they lost a close T20I series 2-1. Now, with a refreshed squad and strong momentum, both teams are ready to compete in one of the most awaited women’s cricket clashes of the year.
Match Venues and Dates
The five T20 matches will be played across some of England’s most famous cricket grounds:
- 1st T20I – Nottingham
- 2nd T20I – Bristol
- 3rd T20I – The Oval
- 4th T20I – Manchester
- 5th T20I – Birmingham
Each venue is known for its unique pitch conditions, which will test both batters and bowlers throughout the series.
Team India: Key Players and Comebacks
Harmanpreet Kaur continues to lead the Indian side with the support of top names like:
- Smriti Mandhana – Reliable opener and run machine
- Jemimah Rodrigues – Creative middle-order batter
- Deepti Sharma – All-rounder with experience in pressure situations
- Shafali Verma – Making her return after India’s early exit in the 2024 T20 World Cup
The team looks well-balanced with a good mix of youth and experience.
Team England: Strong at Home
England will be captained by star all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt, who remains a key threat with both bat and ball. Players to watch include:
- Tammy Beaumont – A dependable top-order batter
- Sophie Ecclestone – World-class spinner and game-changer
Playing at home gives England the edge, but they will need to stay consistent against a determined Indian team.
Both Teams in Good Form
Interestingly, both India and England recently played and won T20I series against the West Indies with the same scoreline 2-1. This makes the upcoming series even more exciting as both sides are coming in with similar form and confidence.
Last Time They Met
In their last T20I meeting in December 2023, England won the series 2-1. Top performers then were:
- England:
- Nat Sciver-Brunt – 93 runs
- Sophie Ecclestone – 7 wickets
- India:
- Smriti Mandhana – 93 runs
- Deepti Sharma – 2 wickets
These names are expected to shine once again in 2025.
