Coming out to open after a huge loss against New Zealand, team India opener Smriti scores a fantastic half-century after Indian Women looked to throw away three critical wickets.
Smriti started slowly while Yastika was playing a fierce knock but after 15 overs, Smriti geared up and scored a fantastic fifty.
With a brilliant four, Smriti completed her half-century and looks strong enough to conquer this game. India has crossed 140 runs and the partnership longs for 65 runs as Harmanpreet Kaur assists the partnership with her crucial 35* runs.
Half-century for @mandhana_smriti! 👏 👏
The #TeamIndia left-hander brings up her second 5⃣0⃣ of the #CWC22 !👍 👍 #WIvIND
