Sajana needed a ball to find the boundary and take India to a win with seven balls to spare. Harmanpreet Kaur retired hurt for 29 after injuring her neck. We await a medical statement from Team India on her condition. India get the job done, but Pakistan gave them a decent run. India win by 6 wickets.

India captain Harmanpreet Kaur is retiring hurt after picking up a blow on her neck. The physios came to assist her. However, she couldn't carry on. S Sajana.

Crashed over covers! Harmanpreet read the slower one. She went inside-out over extra cover and India are almost there

IND: 101/4 (17.5)

Shout for LBW, and the umpire raises his finger. Deepti takes the review.  Ball tracker showed that there was an edge on the Snicko meter.

IND: 94/4 (17.1)

Cut hard by Harmanpreet! However, Tuba Hasan stretches to stop the ball from going for the boundary. Pakistan have been excellent on the field. Three runs for India.

IND: 93/4 (16.5)

Fatima on a hat-trick! Back to back wickets for the young Pakistan captain. First Jemimah, Richa falls for a duck

Richa Ghosh c Muneeba Ali b Fatima Sana 0 (1)
IND: 80/4

Pressure gets the better of Jemimah! That was a loose shot from her. She gets a thick edge, with Muneeba making no mistake.

Jemimah Rodrigues c Muneeba Ali b Fatima Sana 23 (28)
IND: 80/3 (15.2)

One of the commentators just criticised India's approach over their batting order. The commentator highlighted the lack of opportunities for Jemimah at number three and sending her out in a crucial match in the spot was not the right call.

Shafali departs! She tried to go over long-on but could only find Aliya Riaz near the boundary. Big wicket for Pakistan

Shafali Verma c Aliya Riaz b Omaima Sohail 32 (35)

IND: 61/2 (11.5)

That was in the slot, with flight! Shafali brings out the slog sweep and smashes it to the deep midwicket fence. 

IND: 59/1 (11.1)

Served on a plate by Tuba. Shafali connects and lofts it well over mid-off. That was a juicy full toss and Shafali made the most of it. Need more of that from her

IND: 47/1 (9.2)

First boundary of the innings! It comes off Shafali Verma's bat. Slightly short on leg, she quickly goes back and pulls it hard. Just manages to beat deep midwicket to her right

IND: 35/1 (7.1)

Jemimah went for the sweep, but only manages to slice it. However, the ball lands safely. Jemimah survives. 

IND: 26/1 (6.2)

Sadia Iqbal strikes! Smriti Mandhana ends up slicing it to point for a simple catch. Tame dismissal and Pakistan suddenly think they are right back into the contest

Smriti Mandhana c Tuba Hassan b Sadia Iqbal 7 (16)

IND: 18/1 (4.3)

Shafali Verma pierces the gap off a full ball outside off, she drives it nicely through cover. Not enough power to take it through to the boundary

IND: 16/1 (3.1)

Another in-swinger and Shafali gets beaten once again! This too was sliding down the leg. Shake of a head from the umpire and no further appeals

IND: 9/0 (2.2)

That looked plumb! The umpire raised his finger after a quick thought. Shafali takes the review. The TV replays showed that the ball was sliding down the leg side

IND: 4/0(0.5)

Shafali Verma to face first ball from Fatima Sana. One slip in. We are underway as India chase 106

Some useful contributions from Muneeba and Nida Dar. However, a top bowling effort from India as they restrict Pakistan to 105 for 8. 3 wickets for Arundhati Reddy. 2 for Shreyanka

Nida Dar gets the benefit of doubt! That was just hitting the leg stump. However, Arundhati cleans her up the next ball. Gives her a send off as well. 3rd wicket for Arundhati

Nida Dar b Reddy 28 (34)

PAK: 99/8 (19.4)

Pakistan are eyeing at least 110 from here. They will have a chance of defending that total. India's batting wasn't so convincing against New Zealand.

PAK: 97/7 (19)

That's a great shot! Much-need boundary for Pakistan. Syeda Aroob Shah dances down the track and clears mid-off. 

PAK: 83/7 (17.1)

Another one bites the dust! Shreyanka gets her second as Shefali takes another sharp catch, this time at short fine leg. Tuba went for a sweep but all she managed was a top edge

Tuba Hassan c Shafali Verma b Patil 0 (3)
PAK: 71/7 (14.5)

Asha strikes back! Fatima Sana perishes after hitting a couple of boundaries. Richa Ghosh takes a sublime catch. Top effort from her

Fatima Sana c Ghosh b Sobhana 13 (8)
PAK: 70/6 (14)

Another drop by Asha! Fatima got a thickish outside edge to the right of Sobhana who shells it. 

PAK: 53/5

That looks plumb! Aliya Riaz got stuck on the crease. Loud appeals from the Indians and Arundhati gets his 2nd wicket. Aliya took the review. However, the ball tracker shows that would have clipped the outer half of the leg stump.

Aliya Riaz lbw b Reddy 4 (9)
PAK: 52/5 (12.1)

Excellent shot from Nida! Pakistan need more boundaries. That was a low full-toss from Renuka. Nida shuffles across just a touch, bends low and helps this away in the gap between deep fine leg and square leg

PAK: 47/4 (10.6)

Shreyanka strikes! Muneeba went into a shell and when she decided to up the ante, Shreyanka outsmarted her. Clean stumping from Richa behind the sticks. Pakistan in deep trouble

PAK: 41/4 (9.3)

Two brilliant overs, first from Deepti and now Asha concedes just 4 runs in the 9th. Pakistan now need to up the ante. 

PAK: 41/3 (9)

That was a regulation catch, and Shafali didn't disappoint! Omaima Sohail looks to drive it on the up over mid-off. She miscues it and chips it straight to mid-on

Omaima Sohail c Shafali Verma b Reddy 3 (6)
PAK: 33/3 (6.5)

That's a howler from Asha! Muneeba scoops it straight to short fine leg where she shells it after almost gobbling it up. How did she drop that? Aliya Riaz was having a laugh in the dressing room.

Almost a carbon copy of Sidra Amin's dismissal! Muneeba is a lucky girl. She probably gloved the attempted sweep. Excellent delivery from Shreyanka Patil

PAK: 27/2 (5.3)

Sidra gets on top off that! Played on. She was almost through the sweep before the ball arrived. Excellent bowling from Deepti Sharma. Pakistan 2 down

Sidra Amin b Sharma 8 (11)

PAK: 25/2 (4.5)

Top over from Arundhati Reddy! Just one run off it. This hasn't been a bad start from Pakistan, if you take that wicket away. Muneeba has looked composed

PAK: 18/1 (4)

Another boundary! This was full and outside off, swinging away just a bit. Muneeba once again goes over mid-off and finds the boundary

PAK: 17/1 (2.6)

That's a weird call from the umpire! It flicked Muneeba's pad but wide given. Three extra runs for Pakistan. Even the commentators couldn't believe it

PAK: 13/1 (2/3)

Muneeba flicks it over mid-off! Just manages to clear the fielder. She plants her leg in front and thwacks it over the off side to collect the first boundary.

PAK: 10/1 (2.2)

Renuka breaks throw Gull Feroza's defence! Rattles the stumps. The ball pegged off and Renuka leaped high in joyous celebration. Early jolt for Pakistan

PAK: 1/1 (0.6)

Renuka gets us underway with the new ball! Full and swinging in from outside leg. Muneeba defends it and steals a single

The Pakistan openers are out in the middle. The Indian team is getting its warm-up done. Renuka Singh has the new ball in hand, having some chat with captain Harmanpreet Singh.

It's time for national anthems of both the sides. Pakistan start first and India will follow them. We are only six minutes away from the start of the match.

Fatima Sana: Diana is out. She is well, she is under treatment. We want to win this match. We will try to put a good score. I am very excited for this game.

Harmanpreet Kaur: We were also looking to bat. We have a good opportunity We have one change, Pooja is not playing. She has a small niggle. This stage we have to look forward with a positive approach. Always about how we bunce back. We just want to play positive cricket.

Pakistan: Muneeba Ali (wk), Gull Feroza, Sidra Amin, Nida Dar, Aliya Riaz, Omaima Sohail, Fatima Sana (capt), Tuba Hassan, Nashra Sandhu, Aroob Shah, Sadia Iqbal

India: Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Harmanpreet Kaur (capt), Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh (wk), Deepti Sharma, Arundhati Reddy, Sajana, Shreyanka Patil, Asha Sobhana, Renuka Singh

India aim to get back to winning ways vs Pakistan. The history is with them. India have won 12 of their 15 matches against Pakistan in women's T20Is, with just three losses

Pakistan will be a bit concerned over Diana Baig's fitness who in the match against Sri Lanka, only bowled one ball before she pulled up with what looked like a calf injury.

Not long to go before the toss. Let's take a look at the two squad.

India squad: Harmanpreet Kaur (capt), Smriti Mandhana (vice-capt), Yastika Bhatia (wk), Shafali Verma, Deepti Sharma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh (wk), Pooja Vastrakar, Arundhati Reddy, Renuka Singh, D Hemalatha, Asha Sobhana, Radha Yadav, Shreyanka Patil, S Sajana

Pakistan squad: Fatima Sana (capt), Aliya Riaz, Diana Baig, Gull Feroza, Iram Javed, Muneeba Ali (wk), Nashra Sandhu, Nida Dar, Omaima Sohail, Sadaf Shamas, Sadia Iqbal, Sidra Amin, Syeda Aroob Shah, Tasmia Rubab, Tuba Hassan

Pakistan captain Fatima Sana insisted the team will try to carry the momentum after winning the last game.

"First of all, no team is small or big because it is T20 format. The one who plays well, wins the match on the day. So, we will try to carry the momentum that we have gained from here. Obviously, we have three big teams ahead of us. We will try to give our best with them," Sana said.

Batter Jemimah Rodrigues also said that every game is important for the team, starting with the match vs Pakistan. 

"I think what we have been doing really well as a team is just sticking to the process and doing whatever it takes one game at a time. We know every game from here is so crucial for us. We know that. But at the same time, we're going to go one game at a time and just make sure we stick to our process and do our job well. And I think if we can do that, I think if we play our best cricket, I think we can win matches," Rodrigues told ICC.

Ahead of the crucial tie against Pakistan, India bowling coach Aavishkar Salvi asked his side to "stay united, and believe in their abilities."

"The next game is a fresh opportunity for us. The girls have gone through the grind and have been through this (similar results) before. We only tell them to stay strong, stay united, and believe in our abilities and plans," Salvi said.

Only the top two teams will enter the semi-final from  the group. Currently, New Zealand and Australia hold the top two places. Pakistan are third behind them courtesy of their win against Sri Lanka. India sit bottom.

Following the loss to the White Ferns, India's run-rate currently stands at a poor -2.99 and it makes big victories mandatory for them in the remaining three matches against Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Australia.

India take on arch-rivals Pakistan with a must-win situation as they lost their opening game against New Zealand by 58 runs. A win, that too by a big margin, might keep them alive in the race for the semi-finals.
