Reddy strikes as Pakistan slip further

October 06, 2024


Pak 58-5 (13 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Pacer Renuka, who took 1/13 in two overs, comes back into the attack. The dot balls continue to pile up as Nida Dar plays four dots in a row.

She then takes a single to long-on -- the first run after 13 dot balls in a row.

Aliya picks one before Nida sweeps the last ball, a full toss, square on the leg side for a much-needed four -- the first boundary after a long wait of 38 balls.

Leg-spinner Sobhana is back into the attack. Aliya clips the second ball on the leg side for one and Nida Dar pulls the next to deep square leg for another run.

A single to Aliya to midwicket brings up Pakistan's 50, in the 12th over at a run rate of just above four.

Singles off the last two balls as Sobhana concedes five runs in her second over.

Reddy back for her third spell. She strikes with the first ball of the 13th over as Aliya is given out leg before wicket before she takes the DRS.

Aliya is beaten on the inside edge by the incoming delivery before the ball strikes her on the pads. The ball has struck in line and going on to clip the leg stump as the decision stays with the umpire's call.

Aliya makes her way back for four as Pakistan slip to 52/5 in the 13th over.

Fatima Sana pushes the first ball she faces on the off-side before she gets a lifeline next ball. Sobhana puts down another simple catch at short thirdman, her second of the match, as Fatima mistimes the cut shot.

Reddy bowls a wide down the leg side to Nida, who then takes a single on the off-side.

Fatima hits the ball through the off-side for two runs and then takes one off the last ball.
