Earlier Half-centuries from Richa Ghosh and Harmanpreet Kaur took India to 201/5 in the first innings after United Arab Emirates skipper Esha Rohit Oza won the toss and opted to bowl first on a good batting pitch.

With the win India is on top of their group with four points and has one foot in the semifinal. They will play their final group game against Nepal. 

India Women were not at their best with the ball but did enough to get them a big win. Deepti Sharma was the pick of the bowlers with 2 for 23 in her spell while the rest of the bowlers took one apiece.

Another clinical performance from the Indian Women sees them make it two wins out of two and almost have a foot in the semifinal of the Women's Asia Cup.

Defending champions India’s supremacy was evident in their facile seven-wicket victory over arch-rivals Pakistan on Saturday, and the UAE will require a giant-sized miracle to stop Harmanpreet Kaur’s side.

India currently have two points and a Net Run Rate of +2.29, and a win over the Emirates will take them to four points, which will also have a positive reflection on their NRR.

UAE hardly posed a challenge, even though Esha Oza, the captain, and Kavisha Egodage gave good account of themselves in hitting 36 and 40 not out respectively.

At the other end, Ghosh made heads turn with some aesthetically pleasing cover drives and lofted hits with the spin. It's a bit of a misconception that her game is only centered around power. On Sunday, she showed she can hit authentic strokes and find boundaries with regularity without looking to bash the ball.
