Women's World Cup: Smriti, Pratika Guide India Into Semis With Win Over NZ In Rain-hit Match (Ld)
The win sealed India (six points) a place in the semifinals, where they joined Australia, England and South Africa with a match to spare. Though both India and New Zealand have a match each and can tie on six points (if India lose to Bangladesh and New Zealand beat England), India will still make it to the last-four as they will have more wins (3 against 2).
Mandhana produced a masterclass in stroke-play as she compiled a brilliant 109 off 95 balls, while Rawal started cautiously and then played some aggressive shots in scoring 122 off 134 balls as India posted 340/3 in 49 overs. With rain halting play once again, New Zealand was set a revised target of 325 off 44 overs as per the DLS Method, but they fell short by 53 runs despite valiant efforts by Brooke Halliday, Isabella Gaze and Amelia Kerr.
