India vs Pakistan, Women's Asia Cup T20 2022: India vs Pakistan Live Score, Women's Asia Cup T20 2022: Pakistan defeated India by 13 runs in the 13th match of the Women's Asia Cup. The Indian team had not lost any match in this tournament before taking on Pakistan. Batting first, Pakistan could manage only 137 for six against India in the Women's Asia Cup T20 match despite Nida Dar's unbeaten half-century. In reply, the Indian team could score only 124 runs in 19.4 overs for the loss of all wickets.

The Indian team, which won three consecutive matches in the Women's T20 Asia Cup, looked under pressure against arch-rivals Pakistan on Friday and had to pay the brunt of it with defeat. Chasing 138 runs set by Pakistan for victory at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, the entire Indian team returned to the pavilion after scoring 124 runs in 19.4 overs and lost by 13 runs.

The Indian team, which gave the Pakistan team a chance to score 137 runs by performing average in bowling, also performed flawlessly with the bat and continued to lose wickets at regular intervals. Captain Harmanpreet (12), who came to the crease after losing five wickets for just 65 runs, also disappointed her fans. Wicket-keeper batsman Richa Ghosh came down the order and scored 26 runs off 13 balls, but by then the victory had almost slipped from the hands of Team India.

Pakistan thrashed India in every department of the game with a significant victory. Nasra Sandhu took the highest three wickets, while Sadia Iqbal and Nida Dar, who performed brilliantly in batting, got two wickets each. Apart from this, thanks to the tight fielding of Nasra Sandhu, Pak wicketkeeper Muniba Ali run out Pooja Vastrakar.

Earlier, despite Nida Dar's unbeaten half-century, the Pakistani team could only manage 137 for six against India in the Women's Asia Cup T20 cricket match on Friday. However, it was an improved performance by the Pakistani batsmen against arch-rivals India. They had to face an upset after losing to Thailand on Thursday. Nida used her feet well, especially against the spinners. He scored 56 not out in his 37-ball innings with the help of five fours and a six. Apart from him, Pakistan captain Bismah Maroof contributed 32 runs. Both of them also played an important partnership of 76 runs in 58 balls.

Deepti Sharma was the most successful of the Indian bowlers, taking three wickets for 27 runs in four overs. Deepti first stumped Pakistani opener Muneeba Ali (17 runs) and then two balls later, Omema Sohil was dismissed leg before for zero. Bismah was also lucky on eight when the umpire turned down Rajeshwari Gaikwad's appeal for a leg-before. She was looking leg before. Pakistan scored 61 for three in 10 overs. Nida provided some momentum to the innings as she hit a four and a six off D Hemlata to make 15 runs in the over. Apart from Deepti, Pooja Vastrakar took two and Renuka Singh took one wicket. The Indian fielding was also lackluster on several occasions with substitute Shefali Verma missing an easy stumping opportunity.
