136 & 131 - England's totals in this Test. That was a commendable effort by the Indian bowlers in both the innings. Their batters set the tone with a massive first innings total, while the bowlers completed the formalities with a clinical performance against a strong team like England. India Women take on Australia Women in the upcoming week, and they'll be riding high on confidence after such an emphatic performance. Australia are a much stronger side though, hence you can expect that one-off Test to be much more competitive than this one. Do join us for the live coverage of that match. For now, it's a goodbye from Nikhil, Sagar and Harish. You can switch tabs and follow our coverage of other ongoing matches..

Harmanpreet Kaur: Feeling great. We were thinking about how to win the game at the start of the match. Everything went according to the plan. It was a plan, we had to execute those plans. We had a couple of days to prepare before the start of this game. All the players took the responsibility and delivered their best. The first 40 minutes were crucial, as a team we were looking to pick wickets. I know I will get opportunities to score centuries in the future, but winning the game was important. They knew their plans and they executed them accordingly.
Deepti Sharma | Player of the Match: Feeling very good, was waiting for this day.
Heather Knight:
Amol Muzumdar: It's been absolutely brilliant. Amazing stuff from the girls. No Test match is easy. But the effort the girls put in before the Test match, and the people who came in 5-6 days before - had a solid group that was working at the Wankhede stadium. Good sign for Indian cricket. All of them who made their debut who batted and bowled well. England is a top side - no doubt about it. You're talking about Stokesy (referring to Deepti). I jokingly call her Ben Stokes in the team. The confidence she's carrying, and the confidence she's gained. She's an important cog in the wheel. We have back to back Tests - never happened before. We're playing Australia in four days time.
