IND-W vs SL-W Live: SIX! India win!
Smriti Mandhana hits a six over long-on and India win the game by 8 wickets. They win their 7th Asia Cup title. Meanwhile, Mandhana carries her bat with an unbeaten 51-run knock that came off only 25 balls.
A short ball outside off stump and Smriti Mandhana hit it for a four towards through extra cover region before hitting another boundary towards deep point. India need 16 more to win.
Jemimah Rodrigues has been cleaned up by Kavisha Dilhari. The Indian batter came down the track to hit the ball on the leg side. The ball kept very low and that saw Rodrigues missing it and see it disturbing the stumps.
Shafali Verma has been stumped out on the ball of Inoka Ranaweera. The batter came down the track to go for a big one but failed to touch the ball. Sri Lankan wicketkeeper Anushka Sanjeewani whipped off the bails behind the stumps to end Shafali's knock .
While the first one was superbly lofted shot over extra cover for a six from Smriti Mandhana, the second one was a pull shot towards backward square leg from the southpaw. She is toying with the Sri Lankan bowlers at the moment.
Sri Lanka have set a target of 66 runs for India in the final match of the Women's Asia Cup in Sylhet. India put a brilliant show with the ball. Sri Lanka Chamari Athapaththu was run out at the start and India kept chipping in with wickets at regular intervals to keep the side at bay. As a result, the Lankans could post only 65 runs on the board despite playing the entire 20 overs.
Oshadi Ranasinghe tried to take on Rajeshwari Gayakwad but lost his wicket in the process. It was a flighted delivery that saw Ranasinghe dancing down the track to go for a big one. She failed to connect his bat on it and the ball hit her off stump.
Another one bites the dust! Nilakshi de Silva has played the ball on her stumps. The story gets worse for Sri Lanka. They are six down now with only 18 runs on the board.
Sri Lanka are all at sea at the moment. Hasini Perera is the latest one to depart. It's the second wicket for Renuka Thakur while it's a team hat-trick for India.
Renuka Singh has got the wicket of Harshitha Madavi. It was fuller outside off stump and Madavi threw her bat to it. The ball took an edge of her bat and Richa Ghosh collected it comfortably behind the stumps.
While the Sri Lankan team is unchanged, India have replaced Radha Yadav with Dayalan Hemalatha for the summit clash... Sharing playing XIs of both the sides next.
