India Women's next match in Women's T20 World Cup 2023: Date, Time & Opposition

India Women defeated West Indies Women by six wickets in the ninth match of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 at Newlands in Cape Town on Wednesday, February 15.

Bowling first after losing the toss in the Group B game, India Women did exceptionally well to restrict West Indies to 118/6. Off-spinner Deepti Sharma was the standout performer for India with figures of 3/15.

She also created history in the process, becoming the first Indian bowler (male or female) to claim 100 T20I scalps. For West Indies, Stafanie Taylor top-scored with 42 off 40, while Shemaine Campbelle scored 30 off 36.

Chasing 119, India Women lost Smriti Mandhana (10), Jemimah Rodrigues (one) and Shafali Verma (28) and were in a bit of trouble at 43/3 in the eighth over. However, Richa Ghosh (44 not out off 32) and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (33) added 72 runs for the fourth wicket as India eased past the winning line in 18.1 overs.

India’s win on Wednesday was their second consecutive triumph in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023. On Sunday, February 12, they defeated Pakistan Women by seven wickets at Newlands in Cape Town.
