Women’s Asia Cup: Credit To Richa, Because Of Her We Reached The Total, Says Harmanpreet Kaur
Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium: After India got another comfortable victory in 2024 Women’s Asia Cup, with a big 78-run win over UAE, captain Harmanpreet Kaur heaped praise on Richa Ghosh, saying she batted beautifully and credited her for being a major force in their match-winning fifth wicket stand.
At the Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium on Sunday afternoon, India were in early trouble after losing three wickets in power-play. But Harmanpreet and Richa added 75 runs off 45 balls for the fifth wicket, as India made 201/5, the first time they posted a score above 200 in women’s T20Is.
While Harmanpreet hit her 12th T20I fifty through a knock of 66 off 47 balls, laced with seven fours and a six, Richa applied perfect finishing touches with a whirlwind 64 not out off 29 balls, also her first half-century in the format at a strike-rate of 220.68, which included 12 fours and a six.
