India Women vs Pakistan Women Highlights: India registered an emphatic 107-run victory over Pakistan to make a winning start to their World Cup campaign. Rajeshwari Gayakwad (4/31) was the pick of the bowlers and Jhulan Goswami (2/26), Meghna Singh (1/21), Deepti Sharma (1/31), and Sneh Rana (2/27) were all among the wickets, as Pakistan's batting order faced a disappointing collapse in the 245-run chase. Opener Sidra Ameen (30) was the highest run-scorer as she continued to run out of partners before being dismissed herself by Jhulan Goswami. Earlier, Pooja Vastrakar (67) and Sneh Rana (53*) ensured India post a competitive score of 244/7 in 50 overs against Pakistan. After the side was reduced to 114/6, Vastrakar and Rana forged a 122-run stand to not only bail India out of trouble, but also shatter records after records to put India in commanding position at the innings break. The duo now holds the record for the highest partnership for the seventh wicket in the women's world cups.
