What a sensational start from Renuka Singh! In just her first over, she delivers a perfect length ball that catches Gull Feroza off guard.

Now the right-hand batter Sidra Amin comes to the crease.

PAK-W: 4/1 (1.5)

With the national anthems of both India and Pakistan echoing through the Dubai stadium, Team Harmanpreet Kaur, adorned in blue, takes the field alongside Team Fatima Sana, dressed in green.

At the crease are Muneeba Ali and Gull Feroza.

Opening the bowling for India is Renuka Singh.

Harmanpreet Kaur (IND) - We would have batted first as well, but we'll have to bowl well and restrict them. We have one change, Pooja is out with an injury,s he's replaced by Sajana. We'll have to move forward with a positive approach, it's always how you bounce back and we've spoken about it. We will go out there and play some positive cricket.

Fatima Sana (PAK) - We will bat first, put up a total on the board. Diana Baig misses out, that's the only change, she's replaced by Arooba. It's a big blow, but we've players who can do well in her absence. We'll try to put up a good total here. I'm excited to lead Pakistan against India
