Women in Blue post 159/9, bowl out Thailand for 65 in Dubai
India’s Women’s side posted 159 for nine after a solid top‑order effort that included a 38‑run stand between Mandana and Verma. Despite losing wickets at regular intervals, the innings recovered thanks to a resilient 22‑run partnership between Kranti Gawad and Shree Charani at the end. Deepthi Sharma’s 7‑ball, run‑free spell produced three wickets, elevating her to the all‑time leader in women’s T20I wickets. Thailand’s reply never found momentum, stumbling to 65 all out in just over 16 overs. Sulliporn Laomi and Sunida Chaturongrat contributed three wickets each for India, while Thailand’s batting line‑up failed to pass the double‑figure mark beyond the top order. The result secures India’s place at the top of Group A.
