The victory cemented India’s top spot in Group D. Shafari, who already had over 70 caps in the senior side, including 51 T20Is, and Sefrawat, who was invited to bat, sewed a 111-run stand for the first wicket.
Sehrawat made his intentions clear from his first over, playing two points before striking three boundaries and looting 12 runs. Shafari followed in the next over and she also hit three fours. The 18-year-old scored the first maximum of India’s innings with five overs.
Shafari was a partnership aggressor when he toyed with the opposition and pushed the boundaries at will. She put up 4 in 50 in style.
The UAE bowlers looked clueless as Shafari sent the ball over the fence 12 times and over four in a hard-fought 34-ball innings. After hitting three of her sixes and her 4/5 ball, Shafali’s blazing shot ended when she was caught long off.
Sehrawat, who in the previous match she had not lost by 92, completely played the role of a spoiler. She had grown 200 years in a row and seemed to have calmed down completely. Missing fields and lower catches only exacerbated the UAE’s problems, as Richa, who was promoted to third place, was given up to four reprieves.

However, the charge was short-lived as Shabnam MD sacked on his fifth ball. Teammate Lavanya Kenya posted a painstakingly slow 54-ball 24, but the UAE didn’t look like they were in contention.
