India had beaten Australia in the first semifinal, while Nepal had won against Pakistan in the second semifinal on Saturday.
Co-hosts Sri Lanka could win only one game -- against the USA -- out of the five preliminary round games.
Pakistan’s Mehreen Ali, a B3 or partially sighted player, was the star batter in the six-team tournament, scoring over 600 runs, including a 78-ball 230 against Sri Lanka. She also scored 133 against Australia.
