  2. 'Really happy with the way we played'published at 20:59 British Summer Time 22 July

    India captain Harmanpreet Kaur: “It’s a great moment for all of us, I'm really happy with the way we played in both of the series. Credit to our team, we’re gelling and giving our best out there.”

    “They’ve all been really great on the field and off the field also. Everyone in the team, when they get an opportunity they take it. They put in the effort on the field and I’m happy that we are now getting the results. We’re keeping the right mindset and getting the results on the field.”

    On their fielding: “Credit goes to our fielding coach because he’s been working really hard. Initially it was really hard because of the effort we were putting in, we weren’t getting those results on the field. I’m happy with the way we are putting in the effort and now getting results in the field.”

    On her batting: “It was a very important match for us. I've been working really hard and I knew that when I went out there I was going to work really hard. It was for my dad, he didn't ask for it but hopefully he’ll be happy with that knock today. I was under a lot of pressure because I wasn't getting runs. When you put in the hard work it pays off.”

  4. 'I don’t think everyone is doing everything they possibly can'published at 20:56 British Summer Time 22 July

    Katherine Sciver-Brunt
    Ex-England bowler on BBC Test Match Special

    It’s hard for me to understand some people sometimes and their attitudes because to me it looks lazy and like they don’t care.

    I do sometimes [see that in this team at times]. Are they actually feeling like that? Or do you actually care a lot and that is your way of showing it? I struggled a lot with that.

    It came across to me as bad attitude and no discipline. That is definitely not what I’m seeing from everyone but at times there are examples.

    That is more an internal thing. When the pressure gets to them they go external and what comes out is not good cricket. They are being crippled inside and suddenly they are not switched on or they suddenly don’t want the ball because they are scared to fail.

    A lot of versions like me have left the team and a lot of different versions have come into the team. Nat is captain now and she’s the polar opposite to me, she’s very quiet, inside and patient. She is everything I am not. You know how I feel but you wouldn’t know how Nat is feeling.

    I wouldn’t say that nobody in this team wants it, they all want it and to do their best. There is a lot of timid people and not many front-footed people who are willing to do anything.

    I don’t think everyone is doing everything they possibly can. And the key to that question is why? I don’t think there is anything malicious in that, it is a mental thing. We just need to be stronger internally and be more outwards with our fight.

    Do we protect our girls too much?

  5. 'We will learn a lot from this'published at 20:53 British Summer Time 22 July

    More from England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt on the bowling attack and balance of the side: "No, we don't have the luxury of loads of all-rounders and with me not bowling, it takes up a batting slot.

    "The balance of the side is an ongoing conversation that we have quite a lot and will have to become pitch-dependent [for the World Cup]. But the plan is for me to be bowling by then so that will give us a sixth bowler in that role.

    "We are trying different things and we will learn a lot from this. Using only five bowlers gives everyone a challenge of bowling at different stages of the game and I am happy that we've been able to see that here and learn from it."

    On India: "They are a world-class side and will take some beating, especially in their own conditions. It's put a marker for where we need to be.

    "Their fielding has been brilliant at times and when ours hasn't been on point, they've shown how much of a difference it can make."

  6. 'Some fielders seem surprised the ball is coming to them'published at 20:51 British Summer Time 22 July

    England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt: "Firstly on the chase, we did really well to keep ourselves in the game that long. We were pretty happy with how we were tracking throughout the innings but then the wickets at the back end really cost us.

    "From the first innings, we let a few too many through in the field. We weren't as disciplined as we could've been with the areas we bowled and let them get too many.

    On the fielding: "We do work very hard on it. The engagement that we have and the effort in training is excellent so translating that into a game is where we are missing a little bit. Some people maybe seem surprised that the ball is coming to them.

    "But in training we are absolutely flying around and obviously when you know you need to perform the skill under pressure, it becomes more difficult. We will continue to work on it."

    On managing that as a captain: "There are some people in the field who will be driving that, there's energy in the field that is driven by senior members of the side. It's something we want to work on, it just hasn't quite happened for us yet."

    India have 10 fielders out there looking like they want the ball, who all look ready. It really puts pressure on the batters when you see them out there and really boost the bowlers' confidence. They feel like they are being backed.

  8. 'You want to be tested against the best'published at 20:46 British Summer Time 22 July

    England's ODI player of the summer Amy Jones: "I've loved the role. The West Indies series went a bit better for me, but that's opening - learning as you go and taking the highs with the lows.

    "India have been a huge challenge, one that we've enjoyed, and as a player you want to be tested against the best.

    "The biggest thing for me is my mindset. Looking ahead to the World Cup, it'll be about adapting to various different bowlers but just trusting my game and reacting to each game as it comes."

    A lot of learnings from this for England. Heather Knight is a massive loss for England. You can't buy experience. Nat Sciver-Brunt balances this side out unbelievably.

  10. Postpublished at 20:42 British Summer Time 22 July

    It ultimately proved to be an effort in vain.

    But take nothing away from England skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt who kept her side firmly in the chase.

    Relive some of the best shots from her innings, which ended just two runs short of a 100.

    Harmanpreet Kaur is a world class player. Today will give her so much confidence going into the World Cup.

    This Indian side has got so much depth. Kranti Goud, what a performance. She's a nice young talent, bowled well at the start and took a few but it was at the death where it really mattered and she still managed to get it done.

  13. Postpublished at 20:36 British Summer Time 22 July

    While it was Harmanpreet Kaur who made the difference with the bat for India, Kranti Goud made an equally important contribution with the ball.

    The young fast bowler dismissed both of England's opener and finished with impressive figures of 6-36.

    India outfielded England once again. India have been so much more switched on, they've had plans and implemented them and stunned England. England have a lot to talk about.

    What a tour this has been for India women.

    They won the T20 series 3-2 to secure their first-ever series victory in that format over England.

    They then made a brilliant start to the ODI series before England fought back a rain-affected second ODI at Lord's.

    Harmanpreet Kaur's side stepped up in the decider too, with the captain leading from the front, to complete the double over hosts England.

    India all credit to them, winning both series here, going into the World Cup on home soil on a high. For England, there will be questions.
