INDW v ENGW: It was a tough day for us, but we will come back attacking, says pacer Lauren BellDecember 14, 2023Navi Mumbai, Dec 14 (IANS) England pacer Lauren Bell admitted that the first day of the one-off Test against India Women at the D.Y Patil Stadium on Thursday was quite tough for her team and felt they have done well to remain in contention and hoped that they would come back on the second morning and prise out India’s remaining three wickets as early before taking the attack to them with the bat.
Bell, who claimed 2-64 and also pouched a catch, said it was challenging for them to go into the match after only a couple of days’ preparation and things were made tougher for them by the hot and humid conditions.India rode on three-century partnerships between three left-right combinations to post 410/7 in 94 overs to set up the game nicely. It was a cat-and-mouse game between the teams throughout the day as England came strongly to peg India back every time the hosts looked like taking control with a good partnership.”Yeah, they (India) definitely kept coming back. I think they batted really well today. And I guess that’s a Test match. https://ians.in/detail/indw-v-engw-it-was-a-tough-day-for-us-but-we-will-come-back-attacking-says-pacer-lauren-bell–20231214191950/
