The 5th over of the match was filled with tension as Dharnidharka bowled a short of a length, wide outside off delivery. Shafali, in an attempt to capitalize on the opportunity, was too early on the shot and got the faintest of the edges to the keeper. The ball flew towards the keeper, creating a moment of uncertainty, but she managed to grab it.
With Dharnidharka's crucial wicket, India faced a setback, losing two wickets, including Smriti Mandhana, who departed after scoring just 13 runs off 9 balls.
As India aimed to recover, the UAE team immediately capitalized on the situation, making another breakthrough by bowling Dayalan Hemalatha out.
At the time of writing, Jemimah Rodrigues and Captain Harmanpreet Kaur are out in the middle hoping to make amends as India are 101/3 after 11 overs.
