India Women's next match in Women's T20 World Cup 2023: Date, Time & Opposition
India Women got their ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2023 campaign off to a winning start, beating arch-rivals Pakistan by seven wickets at Newlands in Cape Town on Sunday, February 12. Pakistan Women won the toss and opted to bat first in the game. They recovered from a poor start to post a challenging 149/4 on the board.
Pakistan skipper Bismah Maroof top-scored for her side with 68* off 55 balls, while Ayesha Naseem slammed a belligerent 43* off 25 balls. For India Women, Radha Yadav was the standout bowler with figures of 2/21, while Pooja Vastrakar (1/30) also did a decent job of keeping things quiet.
In reply, India lost opener Yastika Bhatia for 17 and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur for 16. Shafali Verma contributed a handy 33 off 25, but it was an unbroken fourth-wicket stand of 58* between Jemimah Rodrigues (53* off 38) and Richa Ghosh (31* off 20) that took India Women home in 19 overs.
