Beaumont to Lead England as Sciver-Brunt Ruled Out of Third T20I Against India

England's stand-in captain Tammy Beaumont will lead the side in Friday's third T20I at the Kia Oval after Nat Sciver-Brunt was ruled out with a groin strain sustained during Tuesday's defeat in Bristol. With England trailing 2-0 in the five-match series, the setback to Sciver-Brunt—both captain and key batter—is a significant blow. Beaumont, stepping into the captaincy role for the first time in her 247-match career, aims to rally the team through a challenging moment, emphasizing calm, fight, and resilience as England look to stay alive in the series.
