India easy victors, good all-round performance by them. Kept the pressure on Pakistan throughout when they were bowling. Pakistan ran appaliingly, perhaps as a result of that very pressure. The strapped-ankle Jhulan Goswami shakes hands with all the Pakistan players as they come off, she may miss the semi against Sri Lanka on Tuesday for sure. Mithali Raj is the Player of the Match though she's the first to praise her team for their contributions to the victory.

The other semi-final of the ACC Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup is between Bangladesh and Pakistan, on Tuesday. Thanks for logging on, we're back with the remaining group matches from Guangzhou tomorrow.
