Harmanpreet falls as India reach 136/3 against Pakistan after 30 overs

Colombo, Oct 5 (PTI) Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur fell for a 34-ball 19 and Jemimah Rodrigues (22 not out) got an early lifeline as India reached 136/3 on a slow wicket against Pakistan after 30 overs, in their ICC ODI World Cup match here on Sunday.

India, who had made a bright start reaching 54/1 after 10 overs, lost momentum after that while Pakistan also did well to maintain the pressure.

Harmanpreet was caught behind off a delivery from Diana Baig, getting a thick edge that was collected well behind the wickets in the 25th over.

In the 27th over, Rodrigues had a narrow escape when she was caught behind off Baig off an inside edge, but Pakistan's celebration did not last long as the bowler was found to have overstepped.
