India, Oct. 19 -- After the loss against Australia, India coach Amol Muzumdar spoke about how "a finish in the game is more important than the start". And before the match against England began, it was clear that the clash would reveal which side responded better under pressure. For the third game in a row, when it came down to the final moments, India fumbled. This time by an agonising four runs.

Set a target of 289, India needed a complete performance to keep their World Cup hopes alive. Instead, despite a brave 125-run partnership between Smriti Mandhana (88) and Harmanpreet Kaur (70), they fell agonisingly short, undone by England's control in the closing overs.

With this win, England sealed their spot in the semis behind Australia....
