Great start
The Indian side, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, began the tri series on April 27 with a nine-wicket win over the hosts. India easily chased Sri Lanka’s target of 148 in the 30th over with 9 wickets to spare in the rain-curtailed match, which was reduced to 39 overs an innings.
Opener Pratika Rawal was awarded the Player of the Match for her unbeaten 50 of 62 balls.
India then eased past Laura Wolvaardt’s South Africa by 15 runs on April 29.
Cusp of final
Sneh Rana, who was the pick of the bowlers in the opening game with 3/31 in her 8 overs, bagged a five-wicket haul (5/43 in 10 overs) against the Proteas as India defended their first innings total of 276/6.
Pratika Rawal registered yet another half century as she top-scored for the Indian women with 78 (91).
If India beats Sri Lanka on Sunday, they would qualify for the final of the tri-series with a game to spare.
