Charani Stars in India’s Huge Win over Pakistan
On Saturday, September 5, 2026, Indian spinners dismantled Pakistan for 55 runs in the Women's Asia Cup at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, marking Pakistan's lowest-ever T20I score.
Captain Fatima Sana chose to bat first, but the side struggled against India's spin attack; Pakistan's innings deteriorated rapidly after the opening partnership, with nine players failing to reach double figures.
N Shree Charani and Prema Rawat were highly effective, each claiming three wickets, while Deepti Sharma took two wickets for only five runs in 3.1 overs to dismantle the lineup.
During the chase, Shafali Verma completed 3000 runs in women's T20Is, becoming the youngest cricketer to achieve this feat alongside Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana.
India now requires 56 runs to complete the victory and maintain their dominant group stage run in the Asia Cup; the team under Kaur looks poised to secure another win.
