Women’s T20 World Cup: Indian team’s amazing victory over Pakistan is praised by Virat Kohli.

Indian vs. Pakistan matches are typically high-pressure affairs, and their Women’s T20 World Cup opener match on Sunday, February 12, was no exception.

With the assistance of Jemimah Rodrigues’ magnificent innings, India easily won the match. Jemimah and Richa Ghosh ensure that the Indian team crosses the victory line.

Virat Kohli, the Indian  batting maestro, is one of the very few individuals who have firsthand knowledge of what unfolds in an India versus Pakistan match.

Virat Kohli has participated in numerous heated matches against Pakistan. On his Instagram account, he uploaded a photo of the Indian women’s team and congratulated them on their monumental triumph. He wrote, “What a victory by our women’s team versus Pakistan in a high-pressure game with a challenging run chase.”
“The women’s team is making such enormous strides forward with each event we play that it will encourage an entire generation of young women to take up the sport and raise the bar for women’s cricket. More power to you all. God bless.”

Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first, accumulating 149 runs on the scoreboard. Captain Bismah Maroof struck 68 off 55 balls and remained not out; she also forged a crucial partnership at the end to help her team reach this total. Ayesha Naseem, 18, stole the show with a quick-fire innings of 43* off 25 balls, leaving the Indian bowlers shell-shocked.
Jemimah Rodrigues’ amazing fifty steered India to victory in a nail-biting chase. Richa Ghosh’s innings of 31* off 20 balls, which virtually eliminated Pakistan’s prospects of winning, was a crucial component in India’s victory. Jemimah and Richa’s unbroken partnership of 58 runs saw India cross the finish line with one over remaining.
