3:15pm: 179 is a steep target for the UAE to chase, but never say never. Sudarshanan will be with you in a bit to bring you the start of the UAE chase.

Deepti Sharma: I enjoyed batting there, we just wanted to build a partnership. Jemi and I were just talking about staying at the wicket. I enjoy wherever I bat or bowl.

3:12pm: UAE showed their ability and potential in those first five overs, with Mahika Gaur being particularly impressive at the top. But a 128-run partnership between Deepti Sharma and Jemimah Rodrigues put India on top. Rodrigues followed her 76 against Sri Lanka with 75 here, Deepti's 64 was a crucial hand, before rapid cameos by Vastrakar and Navgire at the end took India to 178, a score they will be pleased with.
