Mithali, 38, can quit anytime and though the 32-year-old Harmanpreet still has a few years, the burden of captaincy has been weighing heavily on her as her depleting form shows.

Deepti made 24 off 27 balls to help India get to a competitive total on Sunday night and then snared half-centurion Tammy Beaumont in a spell of 1/18 off four overs.
The 23-year-old from Agra has led from the front and shown grit.

"I like to play in pressure situations, whatever be the position - whether it is in batting, bowling or fielding. As an all-rounder, I try to give my best and maximum contribution in every department. The more I take the team forward, the better it is," said Deepti after the match.

The left-handed batswoman, who bowls off-spin, has put up exemplary performances on the tour of England.
