- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.5 A horrible mix-up and Oza is a goner! She shimmies down the track and pushes it towards cover, sets off for a single that is almost non-existent. She hesitates a touch, Theertha also then stops and turns back. Too late for Oza as the throw from Chhetry is spot on to the wicketkeeper. Oza is the in-form batter for UAE and she trudges back now 11/15.3 Soft dismissal! Theertha walks back now. She has been driving balls straight back on the up, got a life earlier, but not this time. Tossed up on middle, chips it back at a catchable height and Barma grasps it on her left. UAE in a spot of bother 36/33.1 Castled. Rai celebrates and why won't she. She bowls a gentle inswinger on a length from outside off, Rinitha has a pre-meditated attempt at charging down and going hard, misses it completely and is bowled 21/27.2 Catching practice for cover. SHortish and outside off, Dharnidharka goes back and punches it uppishly and straight to Kunwar. Nervy UAE slip further 46/414.1 down the track looking to go over extra cover but ends up miscuing it to the point fielder. An easy catch there for Joshi 78/518.3 Moves across but ends up scooping it towards short fine leg where the fielder completes the catch on her knees 107/718.1 full around off. Drilled towards long-on and they are coming back for the second. It wasn't a great throw but Barma did well there to collect it well in front and then flick it onto the stumps to find Hotchandani short. An easy one for the third umpire there 107/619.3 down the track and misses. The keeper fumbles and breaks the stumps without the ball in her hands. But the batter had given up, which allowed the keeper to pick the ball up and uproot the stump 113/8Extras2 (w 2)TOTAL115/8 (20 Overs, RR: 5.75)Did not bat: I NandakumarFall of wickets: 1-11 (Esha Oza, 1.5 ov), 2-21 (Rinitha Rajith, 3.1 ov), 3-36 (Theertha Satish, 5.3 ov), 4-46 (Samaira Dharnidharka, 7.2 ov), 5-78 (Kavisha Egodage, 14.1 ov), 6-107 (Heena Hotchandani, 18.1 ov), 7-107 (Khushi Sharma, 18.3 ov), 8-113 (Vaishnave Mahesh, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.1 Egodage strikes finally. Once again flights one just outside off, Magar goes for the slog and top edges it to the off side. Vaishnave Mahesh runs to her left from cover and slides to pouch it just as mid-off converges 39/17.3 Kunwar holes out. Tossed up outside off, she charges down to hit her for a maximum but does so straight to Hotchandani at the rope. She does not miss and UAE are ecstatic 51/211.1 an excellent catch by Oza. It was a short ball, Barma went back to cut but the ball came slower off the surface and went uppish towards extra cover where Oza dived forward to catch it just above the ground 74/313.3 bowled. A quicker one, around off. Chettry went back for the cut but was late on the shot as the ball crashed into the off stump 89/4Extras14 (lb 2, w 12)TOTAL118/4 (16.1 Overs, RR: 7.29)Fall of wickets: 1-39 (Sita Rana Magar, 5.1 ov), 2-51 (Kabita Kunwar, 7.3 ov), 3-74 (Indu Barma, 11.1 ov), 4-89 (Rubina Chhetry, 13.3 ov)
