India let a strong position slip away and ended up losing by four runs to England in the Women’s World Cup on Sunday, their third straight defeat in the tournament.

Chasing a target of 289, India looked well on track with solid half-centuries from Smriti Mandhana (88), Harmanpreet Kaur (70), and Deepti Sharma (50). However, key wickets fell at the wrong moments.
