5.23pm Pakistan will have to achieve their highest score ever if they are to record their first-ever World Cup win over India. They had India on the ropes at 114 for 6, and then saw Vastrakar and Rana revive this innings by playing some street-smart cricket. A disciplined attack suddenly lost their lengths, lines and the end result was a bit of a flogging in the death overs. Yes, they would've taken 244 at the toss when Mithali Raj elected to bat, but not from the position they had them in when the captain was dismissed.

Bala: "Guys: Take a deep breath. India has pulled it off from nowhere with a decent total to defend. Thanks to the good knocks from Pooja and Sneh which has changed the entire complexion of this game. Hope the pitch behaves the same."

Diwedy: "What a splendid show of cricket! As good as it gets! Who would have thought this score was possible after that collapse in the middle.. Unbelievable!"

SHAH NAWAZ SHIN: "Great comeback by Indian team, crucial partnership when it was needed badly, hope Pak has a decent start to the chase."

Fatima Sana to Vastrakar, OUT, the leg stump is flattened but what a knock Vastrakar has played. She gets a standing ovation from the fans and her team for this terrific half-century. Looks to walk down the pitch and wallop this leg side but misses it completely to see the leg stump flattened.
