India A Triumph Over Pakistan A in Asia Cup

India A Women secured their first win in the Women's Asia Cup Rising Stars tournament with an eight-wicket victory over Pakistan A Women on Sunday.

India A Women, led by captain Radha Yadav and powered by Dinesh Vrinda's unbeaten half-century, bowled Pakistan A out for 93 before chasing down the target of 94 in just 10.1 overs. Radha's spinners dominated with five shared wickets, while Vrinda's 55 off 29 balls, including 12 boundaries, anchored the chase.

The victory moved India A to second place in Group A after their previous loss to UAE A. Vrinda received valuable support from Anushka Sharma (24 runs) as the pair added 78 for the second wicket, before Tejal Hasabnis finished the chase with 12 from five balls.
