A comfortable win for India before they head home. Pakistan had their moments but couldn't convert them into passages of success. Sruthi's report will be up soon, as will Fidel's analysis piece for this news-rich game. Do check it out. See you tomorrow for NZ vs SA. Thanks for joining in today from me, Ekanth, my co-commentator, Shashwat, and our scorers, M Venkat Raghav and K Vairavan.

Harmanpreet Kaur, India captain: Very happy, important win. Our bowling was great, Kranti was outstanding. Renuka helped her. We created so many chances, dropped some. But win makes us happy. It wasn't easy to bat on, we wanted to bat long and see how much we got. It's been raining and there was a hold on the pitch. We wanted to keep wickets in hand, Richa then gave us 30 crucial runs. Right now, I'm happy we won. Just want to go with the momentum when we go back to India. We know how the pitches there are, hope to work our combinations.

Fatima Sana, Pakistan captain: We gave a lot of runs in the powerplay, extras too. That was the case in the death too. I felt we needed to restricted them under 200. (Thinking about changes for today) We decided to go with specialist batters in the top-five, they need to step up. We need to express ourselves, long partnerships, assess and adapt to conditions. Amin is hard-working, hope she'll continue to do well.

Kranti Goud, POTM: Feels very good. Proud for me, and the people from my village. They've got a big screen up. Harman asked to remove the second slip as the pace was reducing but I insisted on it and it got Riaz's wicket. My coaches tell me normal things and I catch onto them.

Sid: "Handshakes?? " Nope, says Fidel

9:46pm 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. She then convinced Harman to keep the second slip and had Riaz steer it straight to the fielder. Renuka supported her and both bowled unchanged for 15 overs. They burnt reviews and didn't take one or two that would've been out. The scoring was slow. Amin held an end, Pervaiz offered some resistance. Goud then returned to break the 69-run stand. Sana tried to go big but just did not connect. Deepti then got into the act. Amin was stuck at one end as India's spinners took wickets regularly at the other.

Sharma to Sadia Iqbal, OUT, Is that the game? Yeah, taken at long-on. India extend their unbeaten streak vs Pakistan to 12-0. 5-0 in World Cups too. Game ends with a full ball outside off that Iqbal slog swept off the top edge straight to Mandhana. Deepti raises her hands. She smiles as do her team-mates

Sharma to Diana Baig, OUT, Direct hit from 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
