Dubai: A disciplined India restricted Pakistan to 105 for eight in their much-awaited ICC Women's T20 World Cup match here on Sunday. Pakistan decided to bat first after winning the toss but they failed to get off to a good start and struggled through the innings.
Nida Dar top-scored for Pakistan with 28 off 34 balls.
The Indian bowlers maintained a tight line and length to stifle the Pakistan batters while picking up wickets at regular intervals.
Off-spinner Shreyanka Patil (2/12) and Arundhati Reddy (3/19) grabbed five wickets between them.
