    India beat Pakistan by six wickets to open its account in the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

  • October 06, 2024 18:43
    IND 108/4 in 18.5 overs

    Just 4 runs to win.

    Harman clubs one to deep midwicket for a single. Deepti sweeps to square leg for a single. Harman misses the attempted lofted shot, could have been stumped but Muneeba fails to hold on. 

    Looks like Harman has tweaked something in her neck. She’s making her way off the field. Sajana in to the middle. Lofts one over mid off and scampers across for a double. In fact the umpires have signalled a four after checking the replay. India wins by six wickets.

  • October 06, 2024 18:37
    IND 102/4 in 18 overs

    12 runs from 18 balls.

    Fatima with her last over. WICKET!! Deepti plays across the line and is trapped in front. India chose to review. A clear inside edge and the southpaw survives. Swats a short of length ball to long on for a single. A couple for Harman through square leg. In the gap again but not enough to reach the boundary. Four!! Full outside off, lofted over cover for a boundary. That should settle the result. Attempted loft down the ground, just a single to long on. 

  • October 06, 2024 18:32
    IND 94/4 in 17 overs

    22 needed in 24 balls.

    Sadia returns. A punch through point gives Harman a double. A single to deep fine follows. Deepti turns a full ball to leg side and scampers across for two. Too wide, Harman cuts past a very fine short third man, the ball doesn’t have the legs to find the boundary. 10 from the over. 

  • October 06, 2024 18:25
    W
    IND 84/4 in 16 overs

    Fatima back into the attack. A misfield at point gives Harman a single. WICKET!! Jemimah looks to make space and loft one down the ground, gets a faint edge that nestles into the gloves of the keeper. 

    Jemimah Rodrigues c Muneeba Ali b Fatima Sana 23 (28b)

    Richa in at 5. WICKET!! Richa edges her first ball back to the keeper. A faint edge on the attempted cut shot. 

    Richa Ghosh c Muneeba Ali b Fatima Sana 0 (1b)

    Shafali Verma c Aliya Riaz b Omaima Sohail 32 (35b)

    Harmanpreet in at 4. 

  • October 06, 2024 18:05
    IND 55/1 in 11 overs

    Nashra Sandhu. Strike rotation continues between Jemimah and Shafali. Jemimah attempts a reverse sweep but can’t put the ball past short third.

    4
    IND 37/1 in 8 overs

    Tuba Hassan. Finally, India hits the first boundary. Shafali pulls the leg spinner towards midwicket for four. Scoring rate has been pretty slow; eyes on NRR. 

  • October 06, 2024 17:48
    IND 31/1 in 7 overs

    Nashra Sandhu into the attack. Shafali Verma pulls the left-arm spinner towards square leg but can only get a single. India hasn’t hit a single boundary yet. Shafali once again pulls in the same region. Work for the fielder in the deep and she does well to time her dive and save the boundary. Terrific. 

  • October 06, 2024 17:43
    IND 25/1 in 6 overs

    Omaima Sohail into the attack now. Dead ball by Omaima as she releases the ball prematurely and it falls two pitches away! Follows it up with a wide ball. India finishes the PowerPlay with a single off the last ball.

    W

  • October 06, 2024 17:35
    IND 18/0 in 4 overs

    Now Nida Dar. Shafali drives the ball towards cover and gets a double. Now Smriti sweeps the ball but there’s a fielder in the deep and she’ll only get a single. 

  • October 06, 2024 17:29
    IND 14/0 in 3 overs

    Fatima Sana into the attack now. Too wide outside off and it goes the keeper as well, five byes for India. India taking a measured route here. Not many attacking shots so far. 

  • October 06, 2024 17:25
    IND 8/0 in 2 overs

    Sadia Iqbal from the other end. Smriti goes on backfoot and punches the ball past cover. Gets two runs. Four runs in that over. 

  • October 06, 2024 17:18
    IND 4/0 in 1 over

    Chase begins. Shafali Verma takes the strike and gets a single off the first ball. Smriti Mandhana gets off the mark with a single off her first ball as well. Four singles off the first ball four balls. OUT! Shafali is given LBW. Straight ball, Shafali went to play across the line and is beaten. She has taken a review though. Wickets missing! Brilliant review by Shafali there. Ball was going past leg stump. 

  • October 06, 2024 17:02
    W
    PAK 105/8 in 20 overs

    Extra fielder in the circle for India due to the slow over rate. Arundhati with the last over. Nida gets a single to long on. Aroob completely mistimes her attempted loft, falls well short of the fielder in the deep. Appeals for lbw as Nida completely misses her shot and is trapped in front. India reviews after the umpire says no. Impact is umpire’s call. WICKET!! Nida is too early into her shot, sees the stumps rattled behind her. 

    Nida Dar b Reddy 28 (34b)

    PAK 89/7 in 18 overs

    Deepti with her last. Four!! Tossed up outside off, Aroob lofts it straight down the ground for a boundary. A chance for run out after Nida tries to steal a second after turning one to the legside. Replays suggest she makes it in comfortably with a dive. Walks down the track and clips one to deep mid for a single. 10 runs from the over. 

  • October 06, 2024 16:50
    PAK 79/7 in 17 overs

    Renuka to bowl out. Aroob drives a full ball to long on for a single. A full ball lobs up of Aroob’s bat but falls well short of the fielder at mid off. Pakistan losing its way towards the fag end of the game. 

  • October 06, 2024 16:41
    W
    PAK 72/7 in 15 overs

    Shreyanka returns. Tuba joins Nida at the middle. WICKET!! Tuba looks for the sweep after a couple of dots. The top edge lobs right up and Shafali runs forward and pouches it.

    Aroob in at 9.

  • October 06, 2024 16:36
    W

    Asha with her third. Fatima gets a single off the first ball. A couple for Nida through mid off. Four!! Fatima shows a glimpse of her hitting ability, moves the front leg across and slog sweeps for a boundary. Four!! Moves across and sweeps through square leg for another four. WICKET!! Stunning catch!!

  • October 06, 2024 16:29
    W
    PAK 58/5 in 13 overs

    Arundhati back. WICKET!! Appeals for lbw and the umpire has no qualms in raising the finger. Pakistan opts to review. Aliya played down the wrong line. Umpire’s call on hitting and that’s the fifth wicket down. 

    Aliya Riaz lbw b Reddy 4 (9b)

    Fatima in at 7. Dropped! Asha drops another. Fatima looks to cut one, gets the outside edge that lobs up to short third where she can’t hold on. Fatima clubs one over the top of the ring, will get two. Six from the over.

  • October 06, 2024 16:14
    W
    PAK 41/4 in 10 overs

    Shreyanka is back. OUT! Muneeba is stumped. It was coming. Plenty of dot balls in the build up to that dismissal. Came down the track, the ball spun away from the left-hander and an easy stumping for Richa Ghosh. 

    A huge appeal of caught behind off the very first ball faced by Aliya Riaz. Umpire says not out and India doesn’t review. A wicket maiden. 

  • October 06, 2024 16:10
    PAK 41/3 in 9 overs

    Asha Sobhana is into the attack now. Plenty of sweep shots being played. Nida Dar ALMOST chips the ball straight back to bowler. A desperate dive by Asha to reach the ball, which falls short of the bowler. 

  • October 06, 2024 16:07
    PAK 37/3 in 8 overs

    Deepti for her third. Richa Ghosh hasn’t had a great outing so far as a keeper. Just three singles added in that over.

    W
    PAK 34/3 in 7 overs

    Arundhati is back. Dropped! Asha Sobhana drops a dolly. Muneeba ramps the ball and hits straight to short fine leg fielder. A simple straightforward chance but Asha isn’t able to get hold off the ball. OUT! This time Arundhati gets the wicket. Omaima Sohail chips the ball straight to mid off. No power at all in that stroke. 

  • October 06, 2024 15:57
    PAK 29/2 in 6 overs

    Shreyanka Patil is into the attack now. Muneeba comes down the track, tries to play an inside out but doesn’t time the ball. The ball goes in the air but lands safely. Plenty of attempted sweeps already. A good over by Shreyanka, just four runs off it. 

  • October 06, 2024 15:51
    W
    PAK 25/2 in 5 overs

    Deepti Sharma with the change of ends. Too wide down the leg, beats both batter and keeper and Pakistan gets three runs out of it. Sidra hits the ball straight back to bowler and Deepti immediately throws the ball direct at batter’s stumps and appeals for run out. Bat is just inside the crease and Sidra survives. Sidra shuffles across and sweeps the ball past fine leg fielder for four! OUT! Sidra is bowled. Goes for a sweep, was too early for the shot, the ball goes first hit her gloves and then thigh pad and ended up at crashing the stumps. 

  • October 06, 2024 15:47
    PAK 18/1 in 4 overs

    Arundhati Reddy is into the attack now. Sidra tries sweep but gets beaten. Is hit on the thigh, a short appeal for LBW but nothing much from anyone. Just a single in that over.

    4
    PAK 17/1 in 3 overs

    Renuka again. Muneeba, left-hander, lofts the ball over mid off and it goes for four! Didn’t time the ball well but had enough bat on the ball.

  • October 06, 2024 15:36
    PAK 5/1 in 2 overs

    Deepti Sharma from the other end. Sidra Amin is the new batter in. She’s off the mark with a single; swept the ball towards deep midwicket. Four singles in that over. 

  • October 06, 2024 15:30
    PAK 1/1 in 1 over

    Renuka Singh to bowl the first over. Muneeba Ali flicks the ball towards square leg to get this underway with a single. An appeal for LBW against Gull Feroza but umpire says not out. Indians too aren’t excited for it. OUT! Renuka and that inswinger of hers strikes again! Feroza is cleaned up. Terrific over for India. 

  • October 06, 2024 15:24
    All set

    National anthems are underway. 

    Done with anthems and it begins!

  • October 06, 2024 15:10
    Pitch report

    Match to be played on pitch no. 5 from pitch 3. There is a metre difference at either side. There is hardly a breeze which will make it challenging for the players. It is a challenging pitch. There is a lot of dryness in the surface. The downswing of the batters needs to be adjusted because the pitch is providing the assistance with the grass covering, it might hold up. That might not be the easiest to counter. Don’t think it is going to be a high scoring encounter, reckon Mel Jones and Anjum Chopra.

    Match Preview!

    Thanks to fabled memories in the men’s vertical and age-old geopolitical tussles in the peninsula, an India vs Pakistan encounter always excites the cricketing masses. 

    In the women’s game, this fixture has traditionally been a rather one-sided affair, with India winning 12 out of the 15 games. Among the three losses, two have come in the T20 World Cup (2012 and 2016 editions). On paper, India just about has this game in the bag. But, if the first few days of the ongoing T20 World Cup have taught us anything, it is to throw the proverbial paper in the bin.

    Pakistan has, for years, shown promise but fallen short in conversion. The team has gifted youngsters who have traditionally been plagued by a lack of adequate opportunities to convert impressive performances to entries in the ‘win’ column.

    The year 2024 has brought a little more purpose to the side though. In 16 T20Is this year, Pakistan has won just five - the win against Sri Lanka two days prior, one against West Indies in Karachi, two in the Asia Cup against Nepal and UAE and the other a thrilling triumph against South Africa in Multan. That win over the Proteas came under newly appointed skipper Fatima Sana who is all of 22 and the youngest captain in this World Cup.
