India Women vs UAE Women, Asia Cup 2022 Live Score Updates: Jemimah Rodrigues, Deepti Sharma Fifties Set India Up For Strong Finish vs UAE

India Women vs UAE Women Live Updates: Deepti Sharma and Jemimah Rodrigues both brought up their half-centuries in the 15th over as their partnership revived India against UAE in the Women's Asia Cup.

Sabbhineni Meghana, half-centurion in yesterday's match, was next to go and things went from bad to worse after Dayalan Hemalatha became the second Indian batter to be dismissed for a duck. Three down early, India needed a partnership, and Deepti and Jemimah provided them with just that with a stand of 128 runs, setting them up for a strong total. Deepti fell in the 18th over, but Jemimah is still going strong. (LIVE SCORECARD)

With two wins already in the bag, India will look to continue their strong start in the Women's Asia Cup T20 when they take on UAE in their third match on Monday.

Smriti Mandhana was rested and Sabbhineni Meghana hit a fine half-century in her place, so it will be interesting to see the team combination. The bowling, of course, did not get much of a chance, but batters like KP Navgire and Dayalan Hemalatha will want to impress if they get another chance today.
