IND-W vs PAK-W Highlights, Women's Asia Cup 2026: India win the game with 68 balls to go and seven wickets in hand. Harmanpreet Kaur hits a four and a six to seal the game for India. India lost Shafali Verma, Pratika Rawal and Smriti Mandhana early on and were reeling at 29/3 at one time, but captain Harman (18 not out) and allrounder Deepti Sharma (12 not out) showed great composure thereafter to take the team over the line (57/3 in 8.4 overs). Fatima Sana took all three wickets for Pakistan. India now finish as group leaders and they are likely to play Bangladesh in the semis -- as of now. Shree Charani picks up her Player-of-the-Match award for her figures of 3/7. Harman after the match: “Very important game for us, and really happy with the way the entire team performed today, because we talk about being ruthless, and I'm really happy with the way we performed.”...Read More

  IND-W vs PAK-W Highlights, Women's Asia Cup 2026: A four and a six off Nashra Sandhu to seal the game for India. They win with 68 balls to go and seven wickets in hand. Harman steps out off Nashra Sandhu and hits it straight back for a six. She remained unbeaten on 18. Deepti Sharma unbeaten on 12. Good win but could have been better. The victory is totally orchestrated by Indian spinners Shree Charani and Prema Rawat. Both took three wickets each to help India bowl Pakistan out for a meagre 55 in the 19th over. Deepti also took two wickets.

  IND-W vs PAK-W LIVE Score, Women's Asia Cup 2026: Lbw. Mandhana was looking good, if truth be told. Off the previous ball, she had picked up a nice four on the legside. Now India need to revisit their strategy. They are 29/3 after four overs. Deepti Sharma up next.

  IND-W vs PAK-W LIVE Score, Women's Asia Cup 2026: This is their lowest total in T20Is. India need 56 to win this game. So much hype before this game but this is what we get from Pakistan which shows there are no comparisons between these teams. India is a far, far superior team.

  IND-W vs PAK-W LIVE Score, Women's Asia Cup 2026: Now it's Fatima Sana going back. Deepti Sharma accounts for her. It's leg before. Sana scores a duck. Seriously?!

  IND-W vs PAK-W LIVE Score, Women's Asia Cup 2026: She is getting plenty of purchase off the pitch. The problem is she hasn't bowled the right length so far.
