That concludes the presentations. India deservedly take a 1-0 series lead. We'll be back now on Wednesday for the second ODI, join us then. It's a wrap for now!

Smriti Mandhana, Player of the Match: I think I would have enjoyed it a bit more if I stayed not out, but big thanks to the Indian crowd for coming out to watch, glad we could put up a show for you guys. I think the One Day format is a natural game for me, because I like to go out there and time the ball, in T20Is I need to work on my strike rate. Really happy to score for India regardless of format and get that W on the board. Good that Harman finally won the toss (laughs), we could see the wicket enough and then I had to resist my backfoot game and play more of the frontfoot, that was a small tweak I made today. I would like to dedicate this medal to Jhulu di (Jhulan Goswami), this entire series we will be playing to dedicate to Jhulu di.

Harmanpreet Kaur: We are very happy with the support we have got, very motivating. Very important win, we showed the character we were talking about in the T20Is. It was a crucial toss to win, and then there was a great bowling partnership between Meghna and Jhulan. I think everyone who came on gave us breakthroughs. (On Deepti Sharma) She is a very smart cricketer, she was doing what we were telling her to bowl. I think there was a great partnership between Yashtika and Smriti, happy with the way I batted as well. Very important to get amongst the runs.

Amy Jones: Dissapointing, we didn't do enough with the bat. But I think Alex batted brilliantly to give us a chance, but we needed some more wickets in the powerplay. We thought it was a tricky wicket, but I think India bowled well and then losing regular wickets cost us. Shefali's wicket early was very important, but we needed a couple more in the powerplay. I think Harman and Smriti batted very well.

17:59 Local Time, 16:59 GMT, 22:29 IST: A fairly convincing win for the Indian eves. In all fairness, 227 was never going to be enough, but England would have fancied their chances after dismissing Shafali Verma in the second over. But those hopes were doused very quickly by keeper batter Bhatia, would scored better than a run a ball 50, before falling to Charlotte Dean. That wicket however got the skipper Harmanpreet Kaur to the crease, who along with Smriti Madhana stitched a 99-run partnership, batting England out of the contest. Mandhana scored her highest score against England, but couldn't convert this into a milestone as she fell nine short of a ton. That wicklet rocked the boat slightly, but Harmanpreet held her own to steer India over the line with an unbeaten 74. A solid comeback from the visitors after losing the T20I series last week. Stick around for the presentations.
