Dambulla (Sri Lanka), Jul 19 (PTI) Experienced off-spinner Deepti Sharma in the company of pacers Renuka Singh and Pooja Vastrakar produced a fine effort as India bundled out Pakistan for a below par 108 in their opening women’s Asia Cup match here on Friday.
Deepti (3/20), Renuka (2/14) and Vastrakar (2/31) chipped away with wickets at crucial juncture to keep Pakistan on a tight leash through the 20 overs.
Veteran Sidra Amin hung around for a 25 (35b) while Tuba Hassan (22, 19b) and Fatima Sana (22 not out, 16b, 1×4, 2×6) showed some spunk, but the Indian bowlers carried far too many guns for Pakistan batters.
Brief scores: Pakistan: 108 all out in 19.2 overs (Sidra Amin 25, Fatima Sana 22 not out; Deepti Sharma 3/20, Renuka Singh 2/14, Pooja Vastrakar 2/31).
