England have got to hit the top of off stump against her. They've not really got the seamers that can bowl the Lauren Filer short ball and pepper her with the bouncer and that's where she's weak.

Shafali Verma continues her onslaught.
Any time it's been pitched up, her eyes light up.
Shafali Verma is putting on a show here.
She dances down the wicket and pummels Linsey Smith over cover and into the fence.
The India batter moves to 65 from 32 balls.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special
Shafali Verma has played so, so nicely. She's had a decent series. I'm surprised she's not in the ODI squad.
Harleen Deol, back in the squad, is the new batter.
She opens her account with a single off Charlie Dean as we reach the halfway point of India's batting innings.
Ind 85-3
That wicket means the players will take drinks two balls early.

What a soft dismissal. It was a good delivery from Charlie Dean but she backs away and completely misses it.
It was a brilliant partnership she had going with Shafali Verma. She didn't need to do that.
A nothing score and a nothing shot.

Charlie Dean bowls her. Harmanpreet Kaur is looking to dab the ball down to deep third and she misses.
England do break the partnership that had been looking so threatening.
Harmanpreet b Dean 15 (Ind 85-3)
The India captain departs.
Almost a replica of Jemimah Rodrigue's dismissal, but this time it is Charlie Dean clean bowling Harmanpreet Kaur, who tried to help the ball towards third.
I did say WinViz would change quickly if Shafali Verma kept going.
She has and it has.
Image source, CricVizThree more runs to conclude the over.
India are in a strong position now.

Shafali Verma gets a hug from her captain and rightly so. Brilliant knock. Not a great ball from Sophie Ecclestone.
Henry Moeran
Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
A quiet sensational fifty. 23 deliveries.
Ind 78-2
Shafali Verma brings her half century in style.
She drills Sophie Ecclestone over mid-off to bring up the second fastest 50 for India in T20Is.
It's come off 23 balls.
The replays show Shafali Verma has safely made her way back.
There is no respite for England here.
Henry Moeran
Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra
England are half-confident.
They'll have a look.
It squirmed under the bat of Shafali Verma and Amy Jones was quick to whip the bails off.
Ind 73-2
Shafali Verma looks to go after Sophie Ecclestone but misses.
And England are appealing for a stumping.
The umpire will go upstairs.
Alex Hartley
Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special
India are very much on top. England had a decent start but Shafali Verma has taken the game away from them.
The thing is with her is she does give you opportunities. You just have to wait for them.

What a shot that is from Shafali Verma. It's gone aerially back at Charlie Dean but it's hit with that much force that Dean hasn't had time to react.
She's cooking today, isn't she?
Charlie Dean is on with her off spin.
Shafali Verma gets another boundary and moves to 49 - one short of a rapid half century.
