India are two overs behind
India are two overs behind with just one-minute remaining in the allotted time to bowl 20 overs. This is not looking good for the women in blue, who will have to bowl the remaining two overs with just three players outside the circle.
Pakistan have got the impetus they needed with Ayesha Naseem looking highly dangerous. She has already raced to 34 off just 20 deliveries. Pressure firmly on India now to contain the Pakistani batters in the final two over.
PAK: 126/4 (18)

SIDRA AMIN, OUT!
Radha Yadav and Richa Ghosh combine once again for a wicket. Time time Sidra Amin tries a reverse sweep out of nowhere, just top-edges it back to Ghosh behind the stumps. That was good thinking from Amin, but the execution went awry.
