India vs Pakistan LIVE Cricket, Women’s World Cup 2025: India wins the game against Pakistan by 88 runs

Another 80-plus-run win for India. They dominated the chase. Three early wickets. The first was the freak run out of Muneeba, Goud got a ball to stop off the pitch to get Shamas caught and bowled. Kranti Goud was announced as the player of the match.

“Feels very good, the people from my village will be proud of me They’ve got a big screen up. Harman asked to remove the second slip as the pace was reducing, but I insisted on it. My coaches tell me normal things and I catch onto them,” Goud said on receiving the player of the match award.

Deepti Sharma took the last wicket for the national side to help India extend their unbeaten streak vs Pakistan to 12-0. 5-0 in World Cups. The game ends with a full ball outside off that Iqbal slog swept off the top edge straight to Mandhana. PAK 159/10 (43)

Direct hit from IND skipper Harman, should be gone. Yep, not even sent upstairs. Harman was slightly straight at midwicket, moved left quickly. Picked up the ball, ran a bit further and hit the edge of the stumps on the full with a flat throw. Was a full ball that was worked across the line. PAK 158/9 (42.2)

The highest scorer of the game, Sidra Amin, walks back to the pavilion after scoring 81 of 106 balls. Amin’s insistence on playing the sweep shot as much as she did costed her dearly in the end. For many fans, Amin represented Pakistan’s last hope. Rana’s tactic to go around the wicket and bowl full to invite the sweep worked wonders for India. PAK 150/8 (40)

In a cunning display of smart bowling, India’s Deepti Sharma tricked Pakistan’s Rameen with a carefully hidden googly. Deepti Sharma pitched the ball at full length, which drifted rather quickly after the initial bounce, catching the batter by surprise. PAK 146/7 (39)

Indian spinner Sneh Rana brought an important partnership t an end ,bringingmuch-sought-after relief to the Indian side. PAK 143/6 (38)

PAK skipper Fatima Sana was followed by Sidra Nawaz on the pitch. Wicketkeeper-batter Nawaz looks determined to provide much-needed support to the anchor of Pakistan’s innings so far, Sidra Amin. Sidra smashed the third ball of India’s most successful bowler of the match for a crackling four over the leg side. PAK 130/5 (36)

Sidra Amin continues her campaign as the batter maintains Pakistan’s prospects of taking the game with her innings. PAK 122/5 (34)

Fatima Sana tried to hit the ball to the stands but could only get it as far as long-on, where it got caught by a fielder. Deepti picked her first wicket of the night, PAK loses its 5th wicket as it descends into a state from where a comeback will be more difficult. PAK 111/5 (32.3)

Sidra Amin’s steady innings paired with the crucial support she received from Natalia Pervaiz helped Pakistan reach triple digits at the end of 30 overs. PAK 101/4 (30)

Fullish just outside off and this seems to move away just a smidgen. Pervaiz plants her front foot, looking to go downtown but loses her shape completely. Slices across it a fair bit and Radha, back-pedaling from backward point, gobbles up the chance with consummate ease. India break what was a nagging partnership, and Pakistan under pressure again! PAK 95/4 (27.1)

Sneh Rana bowled yet another impressive over as the bowler remained successful in his efforts to drum up trouble for PAK batters. Rana conceded only 3 runs in his last over. PAK 84/3 (25.3)

Maintaining her aggressive form, Natalia Pervaiz struck India’s Deepti Sharma for two back-to-back boundaries, bringing back hope to a despondent Pakistan. PAK 69.3 (21.4)

Pakistan’s Sidra Amin struck a stylist four over the leg side to Charani to help PAK cross 50 as we enter the 20th over of the game. PAK 52/3 (19)

In a notable milestone for Pakistan’s women ODI team, Sidra Amin struck Sneh Rana for Pakistan women’s team’s first ever six against India in ODI history. PAK 47/3 (18.1)

Much to the relief of Pakistan’s cricket fans, Natalia Pervaiz took the complete advantage of getting a break from the consistent swing deliveries of Thakur and Kranti by scoring two crackling boundaries to put some runs on the scoreboard. PAK 38/3 (17.1)

Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur has decided to stick with what is working well for the national side this evening, as all the overs bowled by the Indian side so far have been done by only two of their pacers, namely Reenal Singh Thakur and Kranti Goud. PAK 30/3 (15)

Burnt reviews don’t cost India much as Kranti, who insisted on having a second slip, has Riaz steer the ball straight to her. She points to mid-on, likely where Harman’s standing, and goes bola tha na (I told you). Ball was hung slightly wide, Riaz was across outside off and opened the face fully, the ball kept going away and she followed it.

Adding to the troubles of PAK batters, Renuka Thakur and Kranti Goud continue to bowl intense spells one after another. PAK batters struggle to get behind the ball with the swing movement and fail to make the most of the power play. PAK 25/2 (10)

Much to the disappointment of Renuka Thakur, Ghosh and Indian fans, Richa Singh dropped an easy catch in the 8th over of the game to give PAK batter Sidra Amin a much-needed lifeline. PAK 23/2 (9)

Pushed in full on middle and off, and this seems to just stop in the surface. Shamas, trying to force the issue down the ground, checks her shot and all she does is spoon it back to Goud on her follow-through. Pakistan lose their second and Goud gets her first! PAK 21/2 (8)

Mush to the relief of Pakistan’s cricket fans, Amin struck PAK’s first boundary of the game in the sixth over. The bowler pitched a length delivery outside off that seemed to straighten off the pitch. Amin went nibbling at it but does so with soft hands. The ball rolls off the outer half and hits the deep third fence. PAK 19/1 (6.2)

Muneeba Ali Run Out!! A big shout for LBW, but has it pitched outside leg? Richa Ghosh doesn’t seem convinced and India won’t review – held its line and caught Muneeba in the crease – pinned in front of middle and leg – there’s a direct hit at the striker’s end with Muneeba seemingly unaware, but she’s plonked her bat back into the crease and NOT OUT is the call, the 3rd umpire has a look. Hang on, they again check for the run-out and it’s given out this time as the bat is in the air when the ball hits the stumps.

India’s opening pace line-up, which comprises Kranti Goud and Renuka Singh Thakur, has remained successful in their attempt to choke PAK batters so far. PAK has conceded only 6 runs in the first 4 overs of the game. PAK 6/0 (4)

India starts the second innings with an appeal. Renuka Thakur bowled a booming outswinger, starting on a full length just outside leg and then swerving away devilishly. Muneeba has gotten her balance all wrong and is almost on the move as she goes searching for it. The ball seems to sneak past the outside edge, but India reckon otherwise, and go upstairs. The third umpire takes the review and chooses to stick with the original decision. India conceded only 2 runs in the first over, which saw one more appeal for an LBW! PAK 2/0 (1)

“I think 247 is a fighting total. I was batting in the middle, so I don’t really know (on the decision to keep Richa Ghosh for later), but I think the feeling was to get her in the last 5-6 overs and give her the freedom to play her shots, which I think she did superbly today. This is a fighting score, but we’ll still have to come out, bowl and field well to win today,” Jeremiah said after completion of the first innings.

This one will surely go down in the history books. Today’s game marks a special moment for the team of Pakistan as this game marks the first time Pakistan’s women’s team has bowled out the Indian side in an ODI World Cup. After Kranti’s departure, Renuka Singh, the last batter for the Indian side, tried to take a big swing on the last ball but was caught out inside the 30-yard circle. PAK now faces a target of 248. IND 247/10 (20)

Richa Ghosh carries on her onslaught of PAK’s bowlers as the batter shuffled her feet to score a crackling four over the wicketkeeper through a delectable scoop shot. Kranti was caught in the second last ball of the over. IND 247/9 (49.5)

As we head towards the last over of the game, the India vs Pakistan drama continues to escalate at an unprecedented rate. Sadia Iqbal bowled an extremely eventful over, which saw a big wicket of Charani. Despite losing a wicket, Indian batters continued to power through as Kranti and Richa both struck Iqbal for a four, one after the other!

Richa Ghosh continues her onslaught of Pak’s pace line-up as she smashed Diana Bag, who took a big wicket in her last over for a huge six over the leg side. IND 225/7 (48)
