Indian women barely scrape through vs Pakistan to keep semis hopes alive

Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur's years of experience saved India from blushes as they huffed and puffed to a six wicket win over arch rivals Pakistan, keeping their semi-final hopes alive in the Women's T20 World Cup, here Sunday. Indian batters made a heavy weather of a paltry 106-run target as it required a 24-ball-29 from their experienced skipper to eke out the crucial win. Harmanpreet retired hurt when two runs were required for victory. Sajana Sajeevan, playing her first game, finished it off with a boundary. The defensive approach by opener Shafali Verma (32 off 35 balls) and new No. 3 Jemimah Rodrigues (23 off 28 balls) meant that India could not boost their Net Run Rate which could prove very costly in the larger context of making it to the last-four stage. Despite the victory, India's NRR is currently -1.217 and they remain below Pakistan, who are in third place with NRR of -0.555. India would need to beat both Australia and Sri Lanka by comfortable margins to harbour any hope

We didn't play our best cricket, we're capable of doing better: Harmanpreet

A distraught Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur conceded that her team didn't play its best cricket during the 58-run thrashing at the hands of New Zealand in their Women's T20 World Cup opener but remains confident that her players are capable of much better performances. India were bowled out for 102 in 19 overs in their pursuit of 161 with not a single player reaching an individual score of 20. "We didn't play our best cricket. Going forward we know every game is important," Kaur said at post-match presentation ceremony. She didn't agree that 161 was a difficult target on a slowish track. "We have chased many times 160-170, we were expecting that on the board. While batting, we knew someone had to bat through but we kept losing wickets." India play Pakistan on Sunday and Kaur feels that her team will come up trumps against arch rivals. "We know this group is capable of better, this wasn't the start we were expecting but we have to go from here." On the bowling front, Kaur felt t

Biggest challenges for IND in women's T20 WC will be AUS, SL: Harbhajan

India's World Cup-winning spinner Harbhajan Singh said the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side will face a tough challenge from Australia and Sri Lanka in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup. The global showpiece gets underway in the UAE from Thursday, and India are placed in Group A alongside Australia, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and New Zealand. "I think India needs to be very careful when playing against Australia. Looking at this group, India has Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. But one match that I think will be a little tough is the India-Australia match," Harbhajan told Star Sports. "Australia is a good team, even though these matches are being played in Dubai, on subcontinent pitches that might not suit them as much as their home conditions. But Australia, no matter where they play, are hard to beat. So, the biggest challenge for India may be Australia," he said. Harbhajan's fears were not entirely misplaced as the Australia have beaten India 23 times in 32 T20Is with the 'Women i

Women's T20 WC: India need top guns firing in unison against New Zealand

A stellar effort by senior stars would be mandatory when India take on New Zealand in their opening Group A match of the women's T20 World Cup here on Friday, aiming for a strong start in their quest to wipe off the memories of past near-misses. Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, who in all likelihood, will be appearing in her last T20 World Cup, has been witness to several near misses and disappointing moments from close quarters, including India's capitulation to Australia in the final at Melbourne in 2020. As a has been in the past, this Indian line-up is rich in talent and, arguably, only Australia have a similarly well-oiled unit. But the reigning champions have six titles in their cabinet, and India's is still dust-laden. So, what pegs India back in global events? It seems more a case of mental fragility at clutch moments, and the Women in Blue tried to address that during a preparatory camp at the NCA (National Cricket Academy) with a few counselling sessions. But such external meas

Women's T20 WC: ICC launches AI tool to shield players from 'toxic content'

The International Cricket Council (ICC) has introduced a social media moderation tool at the Women's T20 World Cup to "protect the cricket community from toxic content" and create a safer and inclusive online environment for players and fans.
