London, May 25: The third T20I between England and India Women's Cricket Team has been rescheduled and it will now be held a day before in Chelmsford. The third Twenty20 international match between the two teams will now be held on July 14 instead of July 15 due to broadcasting issues, the England and Wales Cricket Board informed on Tuesday (May 25).
In what will be their first overseas tour after the COVID-19 pandemic, the Indian eves will tour England for a one-off Test match, three ODIs, and as many T20Is in the English summer.
"Date Change. For broadcast purposes, the third Vitality IT20 between England Women and India Women at The Cloudfm County Ground will now be played on Wednesday, 14 July," England Cricket tweeted.
Mithali Raj-led Indian side will first square off in a four-day Test match, beginning June 16, against Heather Knight and her team. Raj will then lead the Indian eves in three ODIs beginning June 27 with the matches slated to be played at Bristol, Taunton, and Worcester.
Both teams will then square off in three T20Is, beginning July 9 and the three matches will be played at Northampton, Hove, and Chelmsford.
This will be the first assignment for newly-appointed Women's Team head coach Ramesh Powar and he would be hoping to start on a positive note.
