India has set a target of 179 runs to Nepal on Tuesday in women's Asia Cup cricket. India, who won the toss and chose to bat, scored 178 runs after losing 3 wickets in the scheduled 20 overs.
Safali Verma scored 81 runs at the Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium. This is also her highest score in Women's Twenty20 Internationals. She added 122 runs in 14 overs for the first wicket with Dayalan Hemaltha and gave India a good start.
Safali played 48 balls and did not hit 12 fours and 1 six. Sita Ranamar got her stumped by Kajal Shrestha. Hemthalatha scored 47 runs off 42 balls. She hit 5 fours and 1 six. Sita dismissed both the openers. Kavita Joshi dismissed Sajivan Sajna LBW for 10 runs.
Sita spent 25 runs in 4 overs while taking 2 wickets. Kavita spent 36 runs in 4 overs and took 1 wicket.
Sabnam Rai scored 41 runs without taking any wicket in 4 overs. This is the most expensive bowling in Women's Twenty20 international cricket from Nepal. Earlier, Ruvina Chhetri's 30 runs was the most expensive bowling by a Nepalese player in Women's Twenty20 International. India's Jemimah Rodriguez and Richa Ghosh scored 16 runs in Sabnam's last over. Jemimah hit 3 fours in that.
Nepal has to complete the target given by India within 10 overs to reach the semi-finals. After defeating UAE by 6 wickets in the first match, Nepal lost to Pakistan by 9 wickets in the second match. India has already won both matches and is already in the semi-finals.
