Inn Break
And with that, we wrap up the first ODI! The T20 champions have failed to chase in the ODI game. The India Women go 1-0 up in this 3-match ODI series. The second game between these two sides will be played on Sunday, the 27th of October. The first ball will be bowled at 8 am GMT but as you know, our build up begins much sooner so do join us for the same. Until then, take care, and cheers!
Deepti Sharma is the Player of the Match. She speaks in her local language. Says that she feels good to contribute with the bat as well as the ball. Adds that she had used this bat in the T20 World Cup as well. Mentions that they knew the score was low and they needed to bowl tight.
Smriti Mandhana, the victorious skipper of India Women says it is a good win. Mentions the last couple of weeks have been tough on them so it's nice to get the series lead. Says that they had a strategic huddle talk. Accepts that they were a bit under par after the first innings but also adds that if you don't believe in yourself, nothing will go your way. Adds Saima was terrific, especially with Suzie Bates' wicket. Appreciates her and says she's a special talent and that she has been with the side for a month now. States that whoever batted today, they asked them what is a good length. Goes on to appreciate Deepti Sharma and says she is a superstar and she knows what she is doing. Ends up by saying that she is delighted to see the others too chipping in while bowling.
Sophie Devine, the skipper of New Zealand Women, says that they had done a good job of restricting the Indian side at 227 but they faltered in their batting. Adds that they should have chased that but they will look to leave this behind and bounce back. She says that they will give their best in the next game and try to win that one.
Saima Thakor is up for a chat. She says she has been patient to be included in the Indian side. Appreciates her teammates and says it is a great bunch to be around of. About the wicket, she reckons that it was a flat one and a batter's paradise. Says they bowled wonderfully and in unison by executing the plans well. Adds that she was visualizing Suzie Bates' wicket a day before and is delighted to take her wicket. Also mentions that Jemimah Rodrigues has spoken to her a lot before the match, and also she has seen her through the journey. States that she couldn't have asked for more and someone better like Rodrigues to present her the debut cap.
The Presentation Ceremony...
Earlier in the match, India struggled with the bat, getting all out for 227. The Kerr sisters dominated with the ball, taking seven wickets between them, while Eden Carson contributed two wickets and Suzie Bates added one. India had a shaky start but Shafali Verma and Yastika Bhatia tried to build momentum. The debutant Tejal Hasabnis and Jemimah Rodrigues partnered for 61 runs, but the innings fell apart after their dismissal. Deepti Sharma played well but lacked support from the lower order. The Kiwi spinners effectively restricted runs and took regular wickets to restrict India to a par total.
The New Zealand Women's team struggled for momentum in their innings, with Plimmer and Lauren Down providing a solid but brief foundation before both were dismissed. Brooke Halliday and Maddy Green then stabilized the innings, creating a vital partnership. However, once this partnership ended, wickets began to fall rapidly. Melie Kerr attempted to rally in the latter stages but received little support, leading to the team being bowled out for 166 runs and resulting in a 59-run defeat.
India Women were excellent with the ball! It was the debutant, Saima Thakor who opened the floodgates for the India Women's side. They all made sure the run rate was in check. While the partnership of Brooke Halliday and Maddy Green proved to be a slight hiccup for them, once the partnership was broken, the momentum completely shifted towards their side. Radha Yadav picked up three wickets and Saima Thakor picked up two. Both were exceptional, while Deepti Sharma and Arundhati Reddy chipped in with one each.
THE REIGNING T20 WORLD CHAMPIONS ARE ROCKED BY THE INDIAN WOMEN SIDE! What a display of bowling this was from the Women in Blue. They had a below-par score to defend and boy, they have done a fantastic job here at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad!

Radha Yadav To Eden Carson OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! That is it! India Women win by 59 runs and take the lead in the series by 1-0. Radha Yadav bowls a high full toss outside off, Carson arches a bit and slashes it in the cover-point region. Melie Kerr wants a single and asks Carson to run but the latter gets a bit late to respond to it and eventually obeys her partner. Scoots to the other end in a hurry. Dayalan Hemalatha, at covers, is quick to pick and throws it sharply towards the bowler's end. Yadav fails to collect it, but the ball directly lobs on the stumps with Carson way out of her crease.
Is that a run out? The TV umpire is summoned in to do the honors. Radha Yadav fails to collect the ball as it pops out of her palms, but to her luck, it breaks into the stumps with the batter way out of the frame. OUT! INDIA WIN!
Eden Carson is the last batter in for New Zealand Women.

Radha Yadav To Molly Penfold OUT!
OUT! BOWLED'EM! Radha Yadav comes and strikes again. She gets her third wicket and India Women can now smell a win. Radha Yadav bowls it from around the stumps and provides a lot of revolutions on this one. At just 69 kph, she tosses it up and lands it fuller around the middle and leg channel. Molly Penfold is lured in the flight and is drawn forward to work it across to the leg side but is months early into her shot. Plays all over the wrong line and the ball beats the outside edge before clattering the sticks.

Saima Thakor To Izzy Gaze OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! One brings two and New Zealand Women have now lost both their set batters in the span of just three deliveries. A good presence of mind by the Indian skipper Smriti Mandhana. India Women right in the driving seat at the moment! Saima Thakor bowls it too full on the off-stump line, Gaze prods ahead and shovels it out back to the bowler. Saima falls over on the follow-through, but parries the ball off her fingertips to mid off. Yastika Bhatia shouts loudly to throw at her end as Maddy Green hesitates for a bit to complete the run. Smriti Mandhana at mid off is quick to pick and throw at the striker's end and scores a direct hit. The side-on replay confirms that Green was just short of her crease when the stumps were broken. New Zealand Women have now slipped from 129/4 to 132/6 and they are still in need of 97 runs in 122 deliveries.
Is she run out? A direct hit at the batter's end and it has been sent upstairs. The side-on replay shows that the batter is just short of her crease. OUT!

OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! A massive, massive wicket for India Women and Saima Thakor continues to impress on her debut as she breaks the 50-run stand between Brooke Halliday and Maddy Green. She bowls it on a good length and keeps the line of attack on the middle and off-stump line. It holds a bit on the surface and Halliday gets early on the shot. Ends up chipping it straight back to the bowler, and Thakor makes no mistake by taking a regulation catch. New Zealand Women need 99 runs in 124 balls.

Saima Thakor To Brooke Halliday
A huge appeal for LBW but not given! Smriti Mandhana comes running to the keeper and after a brief chat, she signals the 'T' to challenge the on-field decision. Thakor bowls a fuller one, on the leg stump line, it skids and comes off quickly on the batter. Brooke Halliday is a bit late to transfer the weight on the back foot and plays all over the line of the ball, as she tries to flick it away. UltraEdge shows nothing and the Ball Tracking confirms that the ball has pitched outside leg. India Women burn a review. New Zealand Women need 115 runs in 144 balls at 4.79 rpo.

FOUR! A valiant effort in the field but in vain and it runs away to the fence! Saima Thakor bowls an overpitched delivery outside off, Maddy Green jams her bat down in time and shovels it in the air between the backward point and short third fielders. Radha Yadav at backward point leaps to her left but does not get her hand on the ball and it races away to the fence for a boundary. It was just too far away from the fielder but a good effort by Radha.

Deepti Sharma To Sophie Devine OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! Deepti Sharma does sharp work in the field and an equally fantastic effort by Yastika Bhatia behind the sticks. This is a slower one, outside off, Sophie Devine blocks it to short covers. Sophie Devine stands between the stumps as the throw comes back to the keeper. Oh, what has happened there? Deepti Sharma swiftly moves to her left, picks up the ball and flatly underarms the throw towards Yastika Bhatia. Bhatia realises that Devine might be out of the popping crease and whips the bails off in a flash. Devine though, is a bit casual in dragging her back foot behind the line and the umpire sends it upstairs to have a check. The replays show that Sophie Devine's foot was just short of the crease and the big screen displays OUT! That's a gift to the India Women but a big setback for the Kiwis here as Devine departs. They have now slipped from 40/1 to 46/3! Brooke Halliday is the next batter.

Sees Plimmer's back leg outside the popping crease, Bhatia tries to dislodge the bails but fails to do so and Plimmer drags her back foot in the crease. Wide called.

FOUR! Struck well through the off side! Length-delivery, just outside off, Georgia Plimmer nicely transfers her weight on the back foot and punches it through covers. Jemimah Rodrigues gives it a long chase from the inner ring to the boundary, gives her everything with the dive, but the ball wins the race eventually. Plimmer didn't try to hit it too hard, just the timing on the shot was exquisite.

Renuka Singh Thakur To Lauren Down
An appeal for LBW, but not given. Renuka Singh Thakur bowls it on the line of the stumps, on a fuller length, and curving to the leg stump line, Lauren Down plays completely down the wrong line and goes for a front foot push and wears on the front pad. Possibly going down leg. India do not opt for a review here.

Saima Thakor To Suzie Bates OUT!
OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! CAUGHT BEHIND! A dream debut for Saima Thakor as she picks the pricy wicket of the experienced Suzie Bates in the third ball. Saima Thakor stays over the stumps and hits the good length, it nips away a tinge from the off stump. Suzie Bates tries to push it to the off side and hangs her bat away from her body but plays inside the line and gets a faint outside edge to the safe hands of Yastika Bhatia who takes a regulation grab behind the wickets. An appeal for caught behind and up goes the finger. Saima Thakor is all pumped up and so are the Indians, and why not!

Renuka Singh Thakur To Georgia Plimmer
Fuller length outside off, angling back into the off stump. Plimmer stands tall and drives it back to the bowler. Renuka tries to collect the ball by bending to her right on her follow-through. Does stick her right hand out in the way and ricochets it back onto the stumps at the bowler's end. It deflects to mid on where the fielder collects it and prevents any run. An eventful first over.
