Albeit challenged, Harmanpreet Kaur-led side began their ICC Women’s T20 World Cup campaign with a superb win over the West Indies in their opening warm-up fixture. Despite losing star batters early, Jemimah Rodrigues stuck in and hammered a match-winning fifty to take IND to 141. The rest of the job was done by bowlers. Renuka Thakur and Pooja Vastrakar struck early blows to reduce WIW to 13/3 before the spinners sealed the deal. They restricted the Caribbean unit at 121/8, with Vastrakar taking 3/20. Apart from this, Beth Mooney’s 50 rode Australia Women’s to a handsome victory over rivals England. Meanwhile, New Zealand Women’s rattled South Africa to record a 8-wicket win.
