In the second ODI, England secured a resounding 143-run victory over West Indies, taking advantage of their opponents' missing key players. Amy Jones achieved her second hundred in five days off just 76 balls, supported by Tammy Beaumont, who also scored a century. Their partnership set a new ODI record, coming as coach Charlotte Edwards reunited them after a five-year hiatus. West Indies' Realeanna Grimmond made an impressive ODI debut with a half-century, but it wasn't enough to overcome the dominant England side. Kate Cross reached 100 ODI wickets, marking a significant return from injury.
Having waited 12 years to score a maiden international hundred, Amy Jones resolved to achieve the feat twice in five days, this time in just 76 balls.
Charlotte Edwards’ decision to reunite Amy Jones and Tammy Beaumont after a five-year break proved a masterstroke, leading to the first-ever consecutive 200 partnership in ODI history.
Kate Cross became just the eighth Englishwoman to reach 100 ODI wickets, a milestone that felt like vindication after a challenging recovery from a serious back injury.
In the absence of star players like Hayley Matthews and Qiana Joseph, Realeanna Grimmond emerged as a bright spot for West Indies, scoring a 64-ball half-century on debut.
