DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — India batted cautiously in a six-wicket win over archrival Pakistan at the Women’s T20 World Cup. Pakistan was stifled Sunday by fast bowler Arundhati Reddy (3-19) and off-spinner Shreyanka Patil (2-12) to score a modest 105-8 in its 20 overs on a slow cricket wicket at the Dubai International Stadium. India reached 108-4 in 18.5 overs as captain Harmanpreet Kaur made a calm 29 off 24 balls before retiring hurt late in the chase. West Indies beat Scotland by six wickets in Sunday’s other game.
