India spinner Shreyanka reminiscences on her debut World Cup wicket in high-stakes Pakistan encounter

The Indian spinner managed to dismiss Muneeba Ali in the 10th over and Tuba Hassan in the 15th over, helping her team gain control over the opposition.

Speaking after the first inning, Shreyanka said that getting her first wicket in the World Cup against Pakistan was even more special for her. Talking about the pitch at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, she said it was a batting wicket.

The 22-year-old praised the Indian bowlers for getting crucial wickets in the powerplay and the death overs against the Women in Green.

"Getting the first World Cup wicket is pretty special, and getting it against Pakistan is even more special. Thanks to the crowd here for consistently cheering for us. Amazing to be a part of this World Cup... It was a batting wicket but we as bowlers picked some crucial wickets in the powerplay and the death overs. I think I'm going to have iced tea now. It is pretty hot and humid, but we have practised here and we had a training camp in Bengaluru as well. We as the bowling unit have done our job, up to the batters now to do their job and get us home nice and early," Shreyanka said.

Recapping the first inning, Pakistan won the toss and decided to bat.

Nida Dar and Muneeba Ali were the only top batters for the Women in Blue as propelled their side to 105/8 in the first inning.
