India vs Pakistan, T20 World Cup: India have registered a 6-run win over arch-rivals Pakistan in the Women’s T20 World Cup Group A match. Pakistan set a 106-run target while India chased down the target in 18.5 overs. However, despite the win, India will be worried with skipper Harmanpreet Kaur retiring hurt with a neck injury.
