So India get off the mark for this Women's World Cup. Their head-to-head record against Pakistan improves even further. Fatima Sana's side fought really hard today but they just didn't have enough runs on the board. We have another game starting soon, switch tabs to follow that one. Bye for now!
Smriti Mandhana: Too soon to say anything, the medics are looking at it. As a bowling unit, we were very disciplined and in the field we were good too.
Fatima Sana: Weren't up to the mark with batting.
Arundhati Reddy | Player of the Match: I’ve been bowling with the new ball, and had to be prepared for the powerplay. We had a good powerplay, Renuka too bowled very well. I have worked a lot on my T20 bowling, in all stages of the game. I’ll be working even harder now. It was a day game and it was pretty hot, but we are used to this weather. I just wanted to hit the stumps more, use my variations and slower ones. That has been working for me.
17:22 Local Time, 13:22 GMT, 18:52 IST: So India chase down the small target of 106 with a bit of huff and puff, but they were always in control of the game.

Nida Dar to S Sajana, FOUR, to deep extra cover
Harmanpreet is holding her neck and seems to be in some pain. She's going to need the physio. Oops, seems like Harmanpreet is walking off. Did her neck some damage as she lost her balance in that previous delivery. Hope nothing major
