    India register record win

    And India have won!! A memorable batting performance from the Indians to chase a record target against Pakistan. Rodrigues hits the final boundary and gets to a fifty as she punches the air in delight. This was all set by Jemimah Rodrigues and powered by Richa Ghosh as India win by 7 wickets with one over to go. Pakistan made their highest T20I total vs India, which was answered well by the Indians. Earlier, Shafali Verma made a 33 to give India crucial momentum. Pakistan chipped with wickets as things spiced up but Rodrigues and Ghosh came to the rescue. Rodrigiues finished at 53 off 38 balls, while Ghosh got a 20-ball 31. Pakistan were good with the bat but were outclassed in the bowling. India shall up their bowling a bit. But this was a great game of cricket and Indians would be cheered up with this sort of outcome. It was pleasure bringing this to you. I, Varun Malik, sign off. See you soon.

They finish at 149 as India women need 150 runs to beat Pakistan and start with a win in the World Cup. Ayesha was superb with the bat, while Bismah played a proper captain's knock by anchoring the innings. For India, Radha Yadav was the pick of the bowlers as she took 2 wickets at 5.20 economyThis chase is not going to be easy as the pitch is likely to slow down more. Back with the chase!

  • 7:59 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik
