A day after India beats Pakistan in the ICC World cup T20 match in Colombo, the India women cricket team lost the World T20 match against Pakistan by one run at the Galle International Stadium on Monday.
After winning the toss, Pakistan women team chose to bat against India.
Pakistan scored 98 runs after the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs and India scored 97/8 in 20 overs.
Nida Dar, named player of the match, took three wickets and gave away only 12 runs in her four overs and was responsible for removing India’s top order batters. Leg-break bowler Bismah Maroof was responsible for removing the lower-order batters who looked like they would take India home. Maroof, however, removed Jhulan Goswami (21) and Amita Sharma in the second-last over to give Pakistan the upper hand. Captain Sana Mir also contributed with a wicket in the 16th over as Pakistan inched towards victory.
