Live | IND W vs WI W | What lies ahead for India?

 

The Indian team not only win a big game but also got two of its best batters in form. With Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet Kaur in great form, it would be great for women in blue to take on England and Australia in its next two games. Yastika Bhatia looked good today and Mithali Raj at three looks a much better plan to let her settle down and play according to the situation. Thus the next two games, especially the next game against England on March 16, 2022, is going to be yet another big game.

The West Indies team started the chase in a great manner getting to 100 runs without any loss in the first 12 overs itself and it seemed like a tight game was in the making. However, Deandra Dottin, who top-scored with 62 off 46 balls for women from the Caribbean, was feeling uncomfortable with injury and got out eventually to Sneh Rana. Post her dismissal, the rest of the team fell for only 62 more runs as West Indies were all out for 162 in the 41st over. Sneh Rana finished with figures of 3/22 in her 9.3 overs.

 

Earlier in the day, the Indian team got to a great total as centuries from Mandhana and Harmanpreet took the women in blue to 317/8 in the 50 overs. Those two were the pillars of strength for the teams as they added 184 for the fourth wicket, the highest ever fourth-wicket stand for India Women in ODIs. The West Indies bowlers were off the mark and Anisa Mohammed picked two wickets for 59 runs.

Wow..take a bow Deepti Sharma as she hits the stumps at the non-striker's end where nobody expected a Direct hit and that brings an end to Chedean Nation's stay at the crease and West Indies now lose their 9th wicket. India need just one more to win the game here

12:48 PM

Live | IND W vs WI W | WI 146-7 | Over-31- Runs very hard to come by

 

Dot balls have been building for quite some time now as these are the first runs in the last three overs and 31 overs have passed. India are squeezing the runs, but Windies here now understand that they need to play out all the overs to stay in the hunt as far as net run rate is concerned

Live | IND W vs WI W | WI 145-7 | Over-27- Wicket number seven falls

 

Though West Indies are not realising it, losing wickets like this run out won't help them as such their net run rate is going to take a very heavy beating here it seems. Sneh Rana and Rajeshwari Gaykawad combine to give India the seventh wicket with West Indies at 145 in the 27th over.

Are we seeing an early end to this game here, Rajeshwari Gayakwad seems to have got another wicket and it seems like the six the West Indian wicket is out as the umpire raises the finger and Henry reviews it but it's the umpire's call on impact as well as wickets. So the batter would have to walk although West Indies will retain the review

Live | IND W vs WI W | WI 123-4 | Over-21- West Indies finding it very hard to score

 

Four!! Finally, after a lot of time, West Indies have four as Campbelle strikes it hard past the bowler for four runs. The team from the Caribbean is struggling big time and to find the four in such times would give some confidence to the batters at the crease and also to the ones that will follow

Live | IND W vs WI W | WI 113-4 | Over-18.1- Rana gets yet another big one

 

Gone!! It's Hayley Matthews that's out. And remember the name, it's Sneh Rana. Since being brought into the attack, the off-spinner has now got two big wickets and removed both openers Deandra Dottin and Matthews as West Indies lose four wickets in just 13 runs since the Drinks break at the end of the 12th over. Since then, it's been all India here in Hamilton

And Meghna Singh has yet another wicket. She gets the ball to move away from West Indian captain Stephanie Taylor and takes the outside edge of her bat and is caught behind the stumps easily by Richa Ghosh. Meghna Singh has her second and India it's third. Taylor's poor run of form continues

11:44 AM

Live | IND W vs WI W | WI 108-2 | Over-16th- Gone!! Meghna gets Knight

 

Meghna Singh comes into the attack and starts with a wicket as she bowls a very poor ball down the leg and all that Kycuia Knight could do is hit it straight down the throat of Smriti Mandhana who is stationed at deep fine leg and thus West Indies have lost their second as Knight departs for a miserable five runs 

11:40 AM

Live | IND W vs WI W | WI 107-1 | Over-15-Drinks!!

Drinks have been called on here at Seddon Park in Hamilton as India have managed to build a lot of pressure in the last three overs.
