Commonwealth Games 2022 Cricket Updated Points Table: Updated after IN-W vs BAR-W CWG 2022 clash - August 4, 2022
India Women (IN-W) faced Barbados Women (BAR-W) in the 10th match of the Commonwealth Games Women’s Cricket 2022 at Edgbaston in Birmingham. India won the game comprehensively to seal a berth in the semi-finals.
Barbados skipper Hayley Matthews won the toss and opted to bowl first. They didn’t have the best of starts as they conceded 50 runs in the powerplay though they got rid of Smriti Mandhana early. Shafali Verma and Jemimah Rodrigues put up a solid stand for the second wicket.
The stand helped them lay a platform for a strong finish. Rodrigues scored an unbeaten fifty (56* off 46 balls) and a good knock from Deepti Sharma (34* off 28 balls) helped India post 162 on the board, losing four wickets.
A brilliant and vital half-century from @JemiRodrigues today.
