IND-W beat SA-W Highlights: India women win by 2 runs- India’s 244 looked a tricky proposition to chase down at Rangiora Oval, and the Proteas fell short despite the work of Sune Luus and Laura Wolvaardt. However, there was a goof-up from ICC as it showed South Africa winning the match by 4 wickets. But ICC later revised the scoresheet and handed India the win. Follow ICC Women’s World Cup live updates on InsideSport.IN

Skipper Luus made a professional 96-ball 87, manipulating the field through smart batting with shots around the wicket, in spite of a green surface and a slow outfield. Wolvaardt was at her devastating best, hitting two sixes to go with seven fours, with Marizanne Kapp (40) carrying the bulk in the dying embers.

The efforts were in vain however, as Rajeshwari Gayakwad claimed four wickets. Earlier, Smriti Mandhana was hit by a Shabnim Ismail bouncer in the early stages of the encounter, retiring hurt on 12. The veteran didn’t return to field at the start of South Africa’s innings.

Harmanpreet Kaur’s century was the shining light of India’s innings, with Yastika Bhatia also making an important fifty to gain rhythm ahead of the tournament proper.

India had a challenging start to the innings as Smriti Mandhana got retired hurt for just 12 runs while Mithali Raj failed to get off the mark after a brilliant run out. Overall, SA restricted India to 230/9 Ayabinga Khaka emerging as the pick of the bowlers with 23/3.

Smriti Mandhana was hit on the head by a Shabnim Ismail bouncer during the ongoing warm-up match against South Africa on Sunday, reported ICC’s official website. The left-handed batter was then looked upon by the team doctor and she retired hurt after an over and a half.

Mandhana felt no concussion symptoms according to the medical staff and she left the ground as a precaution.
