India will be aiming to secure its place in the semifinals of the ongoing Women’s T20 Asia Cup 2024 when they face the United Arab Emirates on Sunday at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium in Sri Lanka. The Women in Blue are coming into this match with momentum after a convincing seven-wicket victory over their arch-rivals Pakistan in their Group A opener on Friday. Star all-rounder Deepti Sharma continued her impressive form, claiming three crucial wickets with the ball.
Meanwhile, the UAE is seeking to rebound from a historical but unfortunately losing debut in the tournament. They made history by playing Nepal in the tournament opener, but ultimately fell short in the match, allowing Nepal to secure their first-ever win in the Women’s Asia Cup.
India, with their strong performance against Pakistan, will be confident of continuing their winning streak and securing their place in the knockout stages. The match promises to be an exciting encounter as the two teams battle it out for a coveted spot in the semifinals.
