Sneh Rana's all-round heroics and a fine half-century from Yastika Bhatia secured a 110-run win for India against Bangladesh in the ongoing Women's World Cup at the Seddon Park in Hamilton on Tuesday. Rana, who played a handy cameo of 27, also took a four-for. The all-rounder was pretty lively in the field as well. But, in an incident that took place in the 37th over of Bangladesh's innings, she could have seriously injured herself or teammate Pooja Vastrakar when the two collided while attempting to take a catch.
