Ekta spins India to win

In 2017 World Cup Qualfier round as well, Pak could only maintain a 67 score figure. The first innings was a little pale from the side of India but with the bowling attack, Pakistan Women didn’t stand a chance against Indian Women who are in great form.

As we move ahead, we take a look at the five things that India did right to beat Pakistan. The Pakistan opener played the wrong line to be trapped in front.

But Pakistan women responded woefully falling prey to Ekta Bisht who picked two wickets. In the 14th over, Deepti turned a delivery a long way from outside off and it went through the gap to knock over Nain Abidi’s off stump to leave Pakistan on 24 for 5.

Star Indian batswomen Mithali Raj also departed early for a mere 8 runs. Zaman was not in the playing eleven for the first match but ever since his inclusion he has been the change that has ensured Pakistan got a solid and quick start each time.

Captain Mithali Raj gave credit to Bisht, saying: “Ekta has always delivered when she has been given the challenge of the new ball”.

“It feels good, the plan was to pile on dot balls, because we were confident of the total”. The track spun more than it had during our game against England.

They’ve also suffered a set-back with the experienced batting all-rounder Bismah Maroof being ruled out of the tournament because of an injured hand. Moreover, Daily Pakistan will present exclusive live streaming throughout the tournament.

The last time these two teams clashed was in previous year during the ICC Women’s World T20.

1st ODI wicket for Diana Baig, in her 3rd match. “The top order played too many cross-bat shots, and if you play those shots against disciplined bowling, then you can’t do much about it”. An in-form Smriti Mandhana fell when Baig swung a full-length delivery into her to trap her lbw for 2. “India are in second spot and have won their first two matches against England and West Indies, which shows that they are a strong team”, he said.

At the Country Ground in Taunton, England’s Laura Marsh took four for 45 as Sri Lanka could only total 204 in their 50 overs. In any case, the group has since neglected to discover the shape and lost three back to back matches against Australia, South Africa and England.
