India A Vs Nepal LIVE Score, Women’s Asia Cup Rising Stars 2026: INDA-W Wrap NEP-W For 78, Set Up 79-Run Target

Just as Tejal Hasabnis was looking dangerous, Sita Rana Magar finds her mark. A full delivery straight on target, Tejal swings and misses, and the bails fly, clean bowled.

She finishes with a quickfire 18 off 13 balls, including three crisp fours, but India A lose their first wicket in the chase. Vrinda Dinesh remains at the crease, steadying the innings as the target of 79 looms ever closer.

Tejal Hasabnis is turning the fifth over into a highlight reel! Anu Kadayat starts with a boundary square of the wicket, that’s four. Next ball sees Tejal loft another one down to long-off for another four.

Nepal try to settle her with a dot, but a wide creeps in, adding extra pressure. India A are cruising nicely, and Vrinda Dinesh is there to support the fireworks.

And we’re underway with the chase! Deeya Yadav and Vrinda Dinesh take guard for India A, with Deeya on strike to get things rolling.

Manisha Upadhayay has the new ball in hand for Nepal, charging in to test the batters right from the first delivery. Early moments, fresh pitch, and all eyes on how India A approach this modest target of 79.

That’s it, Nepal are bowled out for 78 in 18 overs.

India A wrap things up efficiently, never really letting Nepal settle at any stage of the innings. Just when it looked like there might be a late push, the pressure told. Tight spells, sharp fielding, and wickets at regular intervals, a complete bowling effort.

The target is 79. On this surface, you’d back India A, but cricket loves a twist.

Back-to-back boundaries! Kabita Joshi finally finds some breathing room as she takes on Radha Yadav. First one lofted cleanly down the ground to long-off, pure timing.

Next ball, same intent, same result. Another crisp strike sailing to the fence. Nepal needed a spark, and Kabita delivers it in style, putting a bit of pressure back on India A.

Minnu Mani strikes again, and Nepal are in deeper trouble. Roma Thapa nicks one through to Mamatha Madiwala and has to walk back for just 1 off 3. Kabita Joshi, the right-hander, comes in under pressure, but Mani keeps it tight with back-to-back dots. India A are firmly in control, not giving an inch.

Pressure building, and India A tighten the screws again! Tanuja Kanwer hits a teasing length, inviting the shot, and Rubi Poddar can’t resist. She goes after it, but doesn’t quite get the elevation.

Radha Yadav settles under it calmly and makes no mistake. Safe hands, simple take, and that’s another one gone. Rubi departs for a brisk 12 off 9, with a couple of boundaries, but Nepal are now two down and wobbling early.

And that’s the breakthrough India A were hunting! Minnu Mani slows it up, drags Bindu Rawal out of her crease, and Mamatha Madiwala does the rest behind the stumps. Quick hands, sharp work, the bails are off in a flash.

Bindu had scratched her way to 11 off 21, finding the boundary twice, but she’s beaten in the flight and stranded. Nepal lose their first wicket, and India A are right on top early.

Here we go! Nepal are ready to get this innings underway and it’s Bindu Rawal and Samjhana Khadka walking out to the middle. The pressure is on, the field is set, and Bindu will take first strike.

Saima Thakor has the new ball in hand, charging in to open the attack for India A. Early movement, fresh pitch, this is where the tone of the innings gets set. Let’s see who blinks first.
