Women’s World Cup: All-round Deepti, Sneh, Amanjot Help India Outsmart Sri Lanka In Opener
ODI World Cup: All-round contributions by Deepti Sharma, who emerged as the first Indian bowler to score a fifty and take a three-fer in a World Cup match, Sneh Rana and Amanjot Kaur helped India recover from a tough situation to go and register a comprehensive 59-run victory against co-hosts Sri Lanka in the opening match of the ICC Women's ODI World Cup on Tuesday, helping the hosts make a spectacular winning start.
Amanjot Kaur (57) and Deepti Sharma (53) first shared a rollicking 103-run partnership to rescue India from a precarious 124/6 before Sneh unleashed fireworks during her 15-ball unbeaten 28 as the hosts posted a challenging total of 269/8 in a match twice interrupted by rain, which reduced it to a 47-overs-a-side game.
The trio then shared six wickets between them as they reeled in Sri Lanka from chasing a DLS readjudged target of 271. Deepti was the most successful of them with 3-54, Sneh Rana was sensational, bagging 2-32, and with young spinner Shree Charani bagging 2-37, India bowled out Sri Lanka for 211 in 45.4 overs to start their campaign on a winning note.
