Overview

• India defended 247 to bowl out Pakistan for 159 in Colombo, extending their women’s ODI streak over Pakistan to 12‑0 and moving to first place on the points table with a stronger net run rate.
• Kranti Goud took 3-20 and Deepti Sharma 3-45, with Goud named Player of the Match; Sidra Amin top-scored for Pakistan with 81 and Diana Baig claimed 4-69.
• Pakistan opener Muneeba Ali was given out in a contentious run-out after her bat lifted momentarily, a third‑umpire decision consistent with Law 30.1.2; Pakistan queried the call on field before later downplaying the issue.
• A throw from Deepti Sharma struck Sidra Amin during the chase, briefly halting play, and the ICC recorded a Level‑1 reprimand against Amin later for abusing her bat after dismissal.
• The game featured a 15‑minute insect‑control stoppage, a dropped catch from a Nawaz‑Pervaiz collision, reported confusion at the toss, and captains skipping the customary handshake, as political figures in India publicly celebrated the win.
