India Women vs Malaysia, Asia Cup 2022 Live Score Updates: Sabbhineni Meghana Hits Fifty, India Solid vs Malaysia

India Women vs Malaysia Women, Live Updates: Sabbhineni Meghana, brought in for the rested Smriti Mandhana, has scored her half-century after India were put in to bat by Malaysia in their second match of the Women's Asia Cup on Monday. Shafali Verma, who faced very few deliveries in the Powerplay, has also started to up the ante. India made four changes to the team, resting Smriti Mandhana, Sneh Rana, Pooja Vastrakar and Renuka Singh. Sabbhineni Meghana, KP Navgire, Radha Yadav and Meghna Singh have been brought into the playing XI. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side, who beat Sri Lanka in their first match, will look to put away the minnows and continue their winning momentum. Malaysia, meanwhile, lost to Pakistan in their opener in the tournament after being restricted to 57/9. For India, the focus in the batting department will be on Shafali Verma, who has ben woefully out of form. If the young opener can find her touch again, India will feel much more confident as the tournament goes deeper, as they already have Smriti Mandhana, Harmanpreet Kaur and Jemimah Rodrigues in good nick.
