India's women's cricket team showcased an impressive display in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 match against their long-time rivals Pakistan on Sunday, achieving a convincing 88-run win at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

After being asked to bat first, the Indian side found a savior in wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh, who delivered a vital late innings performance. On a challenging pitch where many top-order players struggled to build on their starts, Ghosh unleashed a quickfire 35 runs off just 20 balls, injecting the necessary momentum to elevate India’s total to a competitive 247 all out. Harleen Deol contributed significantly with 46 runs, while Pratika Rawal added 31. Diana Baig stood out among the Pakistani bowlers, taking 4 wickets for 69 runs.
