Earlier, Shafali Verma scored 57 to lead India\u2019s innings, but the rest of the batting line-up did not build on the start. India were bowled out for 147.Shafali added 53 runs for the third wicket with debutant Anushka Sharma, who made 28. However, India had already lost Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues in successive overs to Chloe Tryon (3\/22).After the partnership, South Africa\u2019s bowlers regained control. Ayabonga Khaka, Tumi Sekhukhune (3\/31) and Nadine de Klerk used slower balls and cutters to restrict scoring.Shafali, who had attacked Sekhukhune earlier in the innings, slowed down before reaching her fifty in 31 balls. She was then dismissed after hitting the ball in the air to Noku Mlaba, with de Klerk taking the catch.Anushka was also dismissed by Tryon as India slipped from 99 for two in 12 overs to 109 for four in the 14th over.From there, India lost wickets regularly. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Richa Ghosh and Deepti Sharma were all dismissed while trying to increase the scoring rate.India lost eight wickets for 48 runs in that phase, which limited their total and allowed South Africa to complete the chase comfortably.<\/div>\n
