Tammy Beaumont Believes India Will Be Another Step Up for England When They Go Head to the T20i Series, Starting on June 28 Live On Sky Sports.
World No 2 Side England Welcome Third-Ranked India for Five T20is Followed by Three Odis in What Will Be A Good Test For Charlotte Edwards’ Side with the World Cup on the Horizon.
England Enter the Series on the Back of A Dominant T20i Series Whitewash Against West Indies, Getting the New Head Coach’s Reign Off to the Perfect Start.
For Beaumont, India Take up at Greater Challenge in Figuring Out Just Exactly where England Are Asy Ramp Up Preparations and She Herself Hopes to Continue The Good Form She Displayed Against West Indies As She Looks to Improve Her Record Again.
“I think Whenever You Play India it is a good marker of where you are at as a team,” Beaumont Said.
“Obviously we have a big Winter Coming Up with a World Cup in India, so they are definitely going to be a tougher test Than West Indies Were.
“I think having an extended series of five t20s and three ois is a really great time to test bearselves.
“They have Got a Young, Inexperienced Team that we probably Haven’t Seen Before We Know With The Wipl There is talent coming through Thick and Fast So It Will Be a Tough Series.
“India is a team i would love to have a better record against so that is what i will be targeting this series.”
The Last Time England Welcomed India Back in 2022 there was a big dollop of controversy when India Bowler Deepti Sharma Dismiscred Charlie Dean with a ‘Mankad’.
Dean Was Run Out at the Non-Striker’s End As England Attacted To On An Unlikely Victory, Having Been 115-9 But with Dean Comfortable at the Crease On 47, Before Sharma Took the Bils off after Entering Her Delivery Stride.
The ‘Mankad’ Dismissal Was Upheld by the Third Umpire and Sealed A 16-Run Win and 3-0 Series Sweep for India, With Dean Throwing Her Bat To The Ground in Tears As Boos Rang Out from the Crowd at the Manner of the Victory.
The reaction then Spiraled, Sharma Telling Reporters She Had Giving Dean A Warning Before Captain-At-Time Heather Knight Took to Social Media to Refute the Claims.
While the incident B3wer An Injection of Drama, Beaumont Insists there will be no Bad Blood Left Over But England Will Make Sure Their Bat is Firmly Behind the Line.
“It is gone, it is in the past,” Beaumont Added.
“Charlie and Deepti Have Played on the Same Team at London Spirit. It Happens.
“It is in the laws. Unless the Laws Change and Become A Little Bit More Obvious On What Counts and what Doesn’t Count then it is Going to Keep Happening.
“We have to get on board with that unfortunately. I am sure externally there will be a lot of replays, eSpecially the game at lord’s.
“We will be Making sure our bat is behind the line when Taking off and be playing it in a good, Competitive Spirit Against India Like We Always do.”
