00:00India versus UAE, the first game of this double header day.
00:12They need to beat Nepal to win some points.
00:14Maina Iqbal, former international from Pakistan
00:17and selector as well, was there at the toss.
00:19UAE won the toss, and they decided to field first.
00:23And Shatriya Rajakin ready.
00:25Here comes the first one.
00:27Off the back foot.
00:29Stylish run from Shefali.
00:30Just punches it.
00:32Rectify that.
00:35Oh, she goes big.
00:37It's long.
00:37It's gone the distance.
00:39It's a mighty one.
00:39There comes the response.
00:40Sweets and I. He said I can cut down on sweets.
00:42Not on milk.
00:43Forget it.
00:43Oh, what a shot.
00:44The power.
00:46The timing.
00:47The form.
00:51Now gone.
00:53Look at the joy on their faces.
00:56Moved at the right time to her right.
01:01Natsumiti would have smacked.
01:03You talk about smashing.
01:04Here comes another one.
01:05Right from the meat of the bat.
01:07Hardly any follow through.
01:08Towards mid wicket.
01:10That's the maximum.
01:11Just a whip.
01:15Oh, she is having fun.
01:18Taking down the bowlers to the cleaners at the moment.
01:20What a shot.
01:23Make you reach unimaginable heights.
01:25Full toss.
01:26Easy.
01:274.
01:284.5 overs.
01:29They've lost a valuable wicket.
01:31Yes.
01:32But they have depth in the bowling.
01:34Wicket is in.
01:35Yes, it is.
01:38The batter is initially, she was a little surprised.
01:42Now she's started to walk.
01:43Wicket number two.
01:44It's a big one.
01:49There's another.
01:51The UAE are elated.
01:57Smriti gone, Shefali gone, and now Hemlata
02:00cleaned up by Hina.
02:02Batter was well home.
02:06Sweep is a popular option.
02:08That is an excellent sweep shot all along the ground.
02:12This is quality batsmanship.
02:13And now, upishly is what she plays.
02:16But in the gap is what she plays.
02:17And four is what she gets.
02:22And we lose.
02:26India loses fourth wicket.
02:28Jemima Roderick's trying to go over mid-off,
02:31but hits straight to the fielder.
02:36Oh, you can't bowl her there.
02:39How is that for power?
02:41How is that for quality?
02:42Maximum.
02:47Upishly, but in the gap.
02:49We were talking about her offside stroke making,
02:53and there it comes.
02:54Bicep in the gap, gets fourth.
03:00We can call that a cover drive, and that's going to go.
03:03How is that for timing?
03:05Timing can be everything.
03:06It is everything.
03:09She's just making things work.
03:12In the gap yet again.
03:14At will, with utmost amount of ease.
03:17Richa gets another boundary.
03:25Altas, another boundary.
03:26Fourth of the over.
03:27That's a massive over.
03:2915 gone.
03:30It's 143 for four.
03:34This is not about.
03:38Tell you what, that is an opportunity lost.
03:44Irta Satish.
03:49This is her day.
03:50Richa Ghosh is ruling the offside.
03:58Walks across.
03:59She picks her spot.
04:02Full control, Harmanpreet Kaur.
04:09Unstoppable on the offside.
04:11Really good today from Richa Ghosh.
04:2054, Harmanpreet Kaur.
04:23A 12th in T20I's, an 11th as captain.
04:28Second time in the Asia Cup, and she leads by example
04:33under the sun in Dambulla today.
04:37Brilliant innings from Kaur.
04:38Absorbed the pressure.
04:40It wasn't a quick fire.
04:41He needed to know that there was a responsibility.
04:51That's unlucky.
04:52Darnidharka, she's getting the better of Harman.
04:55Picked a boundary nonetheless, but Harman
04:58is adamant to clear that leg side boundary.
05:01Again, goes back and cross.
05:04Got a bit of wood on it.
05:07Need to remind herself.
05:13That was one that was right in the slot.
05:17Helped on its way with the angle.
05:21Second place.
05:23That she has got right out of the meat.
05:26It's a shot she was eyeing.
05:29Just off the anniversary of that epic 171,
05:32Harman goes down memory lane and smashes the ball up
05:35for six over mid-wicket.
05:44There is an appeal.
05:47And has Richa Ghosh ended Harmanpreet Kaur's innings?
05:51She smashed it to the field.
05:52It was right at the edge of the circle.
05:54Ball came back quickly, and Harman thought that.
05:57Yeah, I think she's just short, as long as the ball's in hand,
06:01which it is.
06:03So that is the end of fine innings from Harmanpreet Kaur.
06:08She was watching the fielder, not Richa as well.
06:11Harmanpreet, the captain gone, back in the heart on 66.
06:14India five down on 181.
06:16Now the focus on Ghosh to finish off.
06:20Up and over, made off in the ring.
06:23Wonderful ball striking again from Richa Ghosh.
06:26Put that run out behind her pretty quickly.
06:28Milestones done, but what an impact.
06:32Through the gap.
06:33First 50 in international T20 cricket for Richa Ghosh.
06:39She becomes the first Indian keeper batter
06:41to score one at the Asia Cup.
06:44A high quality, power-packed innings.
06:48That's exactly what India needed from her.
06:51Giving some room, creating that shot.
06:54Knew exactly, fielder, where it was.
06:58Just beats the hands in a very nonchalant celebration.
07:03She knows she's done the job.
07:05Oh, cuts it away, another boundary.
07:08Another one.
07:09Things are not stopping for UAE.
07:11Richa has a big smile on her face.
07:16Penalised for a slow over it.
07:22That territory is now renamed.
07:29Just over.
07:32The extra fielder inside the circle
07:34has cost the UAE dearly.
07:38India go past 200 for the first time in T20 eyes.
07:4464 of 29, striking at 220.
07:49Yeah, she's just thrown us all into a frenzy, Richa Ghosh.
07:5264 of 29, battered just 38 minutes.
07:55What an impact she has had.
07:57India would be delighted with the overall use
07:59of their batting resources.
08:05That sounded good.
08:07And it is through the fielders on the offside.
08:11First boundary for Richa Oza and the UAE.
08:14Beat the outside edge, that angle.
08:17That is just clubbed down the ground.
08:19That's better.
08:20Eight balls, she wasn't off the mark.
08:23Perhaps this is the way to go for Kirta Satish.
08:26First boundary for her.
08:31Gone.
08:33Tried to clear mid-on.
08:36Got nothing on it.
08:39Clean that up.
08:41The sound of the bamboo is the most pleasing for any bowler.
08:45Vastraka strikes.
08:49Apesh, that should have been taken.
08:52That will surely go down as a drop catch.
08:55No doubt about that.
08:59It's harder to get that elevation.
09:01Go on now.
09:04Well, finally.
09:07Oh, absolutely.
09:08It starts to all.
09:10That sound.
09:12It is out of the ground.
09:15It's easy to come back to form if you have a good technique.
09:17Talk about the power there.
09:19Talk about finding the gap there.
09:21She is really hitting that cricket
09:23ball to quite a distance.
09:25Another boundary.
09:27Marina says, not this one.
09:28It had to be, though.
09:32OK, now, will this trickle down the face of the world?
09:34That's two back-to-back boundaries.
09:37Going to shoot that higher and higher.
09:40There's Ducha Ghosh in action again.
09:42We could have ourselves a stumping in that, too,
09:45of the UAE captain, Isha Uzza.
09:47We will have to wait for the TV umpire
09:49to confirm whether Tanuja Kanwar has her first.
09:56Big shot attempted.
09:59And with great effect, Kavisha Kumari
10:02has cleared the boundary.
10:07She might have just got this in the gap.
10:09It heaved away all along the ground.
10:15Gone wicket as we talk about it.
10:19And there it comes.
10:20Wicket number five.
10:23I think she expected the ball to come some more quicker than.
10:31Closer you go to the target, and net run rate is least effective.
10:35That's a boundary.
10:37Need more of those.
10:40Who's been given a number of chances, I think.
10:43Maybe Jemmy can step up there.
10:45Chance you spoke about.
10:46Chance it is, which has been grabbed.
10:48No mistake by Shefali Verma there.
10:51I wonder will they rethink the positioning UAE
10:53in the last game.
10:57Gives it all that she has.
10:58It's a big, big chase there.
11:00A little bit of soccer.
11:01Be a little careful.
11:02Sometimes your ankle can get twisted by that.
11:06Renuka.
11:07Next game, India plays against Nepal on the 23rd.
11:13Up in the air.
11:14Well, she should have come forward.
11:15That effort should have been better.
11:17And what that does is it's, yeah, it's
11:21got to be the boundary as well.
11:23Last ball of this innings.
11:25There have been some very good performances.
11:28And India will finish with a wicket.
11:31Wicket number seven.
11:32And that is going to be victory for India.
11:35And it is a victory by a huge margin.
11:38By doing that, India two games, two wins, four points,
11:41one foot in the semifinal.
11:43No doubt about that.
11:45To see the debutant Tanuja Kanwar.
11:48She had the best economy rate.
11:50So she's come in for the injury.
11:52One for 14 from four for her.
11:54She'll be absolutely delighted with that
11:56because although the wickets were shared around,
11:58she had the best economy rate.
