Deepti Sharma and Jemimah Rodrigues star for India against UAE

Batting first, India were struggling at 19-3 in the fifth over when Jemimah Rodrigues joined hands with Deepti Sharma and put on a fabulous partnership to bail the team out of a precarious situation.

They put over 100 runs between them to take the team to a competitive score. Rodrigues continued her rich form with the bat and was well-supported by Sharma from the other end. They are on a roll and will look to keep performing likewise in the next few games.

United Arab Emirates had come very close to creating an upset against Sri Lanka the other evening. They hoped of repeating that performance against India but struggled to chase down a massive total. Eventuall they fell well short and will hope for a better outing in their next game.
