That's it from us today. Hope you enjoyed our coverage. On behalf of Sruthi and Vairavan, this is Srinidhi signing off. Cheers!

Mandhana, the stand in India captain: "It's a proud feeling, playing 100 T20Is for India. We won big, so shoutout to all the girls. It's a fun team to play with and I'm happy to have played my 100th T20 with them. I wouldn't say they [Thailand] are a weaker opponent because they were playing really good cricket in the tournament. We were looking forward to come and play against them. Definitely, things didn't go their way today but our bowlers did well to restrict them to a low total. We have a semi-final in two days, so we will be working hard and looking forward for the semis."

3.19pm Sneh Rana is the Player of the Match for her three wickets.

Chaiwai, the Thailand captain, said: "We are better than this performance today, we could have done better. Asia Cup provides an opportunity for us to play high-profile teams like India, Pakistan. We have gained good experience."

3.15pm India crush Thailand with a nine-wicket win to finish the league stage with 10 points and five wins from six matches. Meghana and Vastrakar remained unbeaten on 20 and 12 respectively, to take the team home in six overs. It was a dominant performance from the Indian spinners Deepti, Rana and Gayakwad as they shared seven wickets among them to produce a massive victory. India were benefitted by the rain early in the morning and Thailand had no answers for the turn and bounce offered on the pitch. They have six points from six matches and are fourth on the table behind Bangladesh, who are on four points. Thailand's fate now depends on Bangladesh's result tomorrow.
