Women's World Cup

India, England sail

CRIClNFO, undated
India opened the World Cup with a convincing 10-wicket victory against an over-powered Pakistan that was completed in 39 overs. After winning the toss in Bowral, India quickly dismissed Pakistan for 57 and then Anagha Deshpande and Anjum Chopra knocked off the runs without any discomfort.
Deshpande picked up 26 off 37 balls and Chopra had 17 from 23 when the target was achieved in 10 overs. The result gave India an excellent start in Group B and their main rivals England also began well.
Sana Mir top scored with 17 in a disappointing list, with Nain Abidi the only other batsman to reach double figures with 11. The Innings started horribly for Pakistan and they were 7 for 25 before a 30 run stand between Mir and Asmavia Iqbal, who spent 36 balls over her 9.
Rumeli Dhar did the early damage and finished with 3 for 7 off eight overs, including five maidens. Amita Sharma's 2 for 9 and Priyanka Roy's 2 for 13 helped finish the innings off.
In Canberra, Claire Taylor's century helped England, one of the tournament favourites, send an early message to Australia and New Zealand by sweeping aside Sri Lanka.
Taylor's 101 off 95 balls, her eighth ODI hundred, was the key display in England's formidable 5 for 277 and they were never in danger of defeat as Sri Lanka reached 7 for 177 in 50 overs.
Taylor, who struck ten fours, entered after the openers Caroline Atkins and Sarah Taylor started the tournament with an 80-run stand. Sarah Taylor was the first to go for 38 before
Atkins followed her after bringing up a half-century, and Claire Taylor continued to build the momentum.
Taylor departed in the 48th over and left with her side in complete control. Charlotte Edwards (27) and Lydia Greenway (32 not out) also gained some decent practice for the greater challenges ahead
Eshani Lokusooriya was the leading bowler for Sri Lanka with 2 for 41 after picking up Atkins and Taylor. Sri Lanka began with a 48-run opening partnership between Dedunu de Silva (27) and Chamari PoJgampola (15), but already the run rate required was increasing and they could not keep up with the pace. Suwlni de Alwis, the No. 5, started brightly and struck 37 from 50 balls, but it didn't help make the target easier.
Laura Marsh picked up three wickets to provide regular trouble and three run-outs also assisted in the comfortable victory. England's next match is the battle of the Group B big guns and (hey will take on India at North Sydney Oval on Tuesday.
