England claimed a series victory with a four-wicket win over India in the second T20 international at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The hosts mustered just 80 in a dismal batting display and England went on to triumph with more than eight overs to spare despite some wobbles of their own.<\/p>\n
Jemimah Rodrigues top-scored for India with 30 and Smriti Mandhana (10) was the only other player to reach double figures in an innings that lasted just 16.2 overs.<\/p>\n
England shared the wickets around with Charlie Dean, Lauren Bell, Sophie Ecclestone and Sarah Glenn taking two apiece and Nat Sciver-Brunt and Freya Kemp one each.<\/p>\n
India made a spirited attempt to defend their low total and Renuka Singh removed openers Sophia Dunkley and Danni Wyatt early in England\u2019s reply.<\/p>\n
Alice Capsey (25) and Sciver-Brunt (16) repaired the damage only for England to slip from 61 for two to 73 for six with Deepti Sharma taking two for four.<\/p>\n
Yet the Indian total always seemed inadequate and Ecclestone (nine not out) and captain Heather Knight (seven not out) completed the job.<\/p>\n
