HALF-CENTURIES from Amy Jones and Nat Sciver-Brunt helped England to a five-run win over India in their final warm-up match for the Women’s T20 World Cup today.

The pair shared a second-wicket partnership of 70 in Cardiff as Charlotte Edwards’ side bounced back from Monday’s five-wicket defeat by Australia at the same venue.

Opener Jones hit 64 off 45 balls, while captain Sciver-Brunt, making her second appearance since returning from a calf injury, contributed 57 from the same number of deliveries.
