India Women v Pakistan Women – Asian Cricket Council Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup (Final) – Match Update
Aided by the strength of an intense bowling attack, the India Women went on to lift the tournament trophy after defeating the Pakistan Women by 18 runs in the final of the Asian Cricket Council Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup, played today on October 31 at the
Guanggong International Cricket Stadium.
The game turned out to be a fairly low-scoring affair, with both teams registering dismal performances with the bat, while their bowlers thrived.
The India Women won the toss and elected to bat first. However, they found themselves sorely troubled by the Pakistan Women bowlers – chief among them skipper Sana Mir (4-0-13-4), Bismah Maroof (4-0-14-2), and Mariam Hasan (3-0-8-2) – who ensured that the
India Women were kept down to a low total of 81.
Openers Anuja Patil (0) and wicketkeeper batter http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Qanita-Jalil-c82844 in the second over. However, Player of the Match
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Poonam-Ganesh-Raut-c82377 (who top-scored for her team with 25) and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (20) made a valiant attempt to steady the team’s innings, setting up a 32-run stand for the third wicket.
Their partnership came to an end in the 9th over, with Bismah Maroof intervening to send Raut packing. The remainder of the batting order, save http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Amita-Sharma-c44062 managed
just 2 before she was trapped lbw by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 Women were all out at a paltry 81.
However, their bowlers made up for it by launching a fierce attack which saw all 6 bowlers managing to pick up at least one wicket each, while Das (4-0-12-2) and Niranjana (3.1-0-15-2) claimed two each.
The Pakistan Women’s batting order underwent a collapse similar to the one faced by their Indian counterparts. Only three batters – http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bismah-Maroof-c48136 (who top-scored for the team with 18, and went on to win the Player of the Series award), skipper Sana Mir (11),
and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755 Women were eventually cut off, all out, at 63, with the India Women going on to claim an 18-run win which saw them lifting
the tournament trophy.
