India last won the title at Guangzhou, in China, in 2012.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Opting to bat first, India scored 121\/5 with veteran Mithali Raj scoring a brilliant unbeaten 73 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Apart from her, lower-order batswoman Jhulan Goswami (17) was the second top scorer for India.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India refused to play a bilateral series against Pakistan between August 1 and October 31 in the sixth round of the International Cricket Council&#39;s (ICC) Women&#39;s Championship calendar recently.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The ICC docked six points from India as a punishment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For Pakistan, Anam Amin scalped two wickets while Sana Mir and Sadia Yousuf took one wicket each.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In reply, Pakistan started off the run chase on a good note as openers Ayesha Zafar (15) and Javeria Khan (22) scored 24 runs in four overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Middle order batswoman Bismah Maroof also played a crucial role by scoring 25 runs. But apart from them no other player contributed much as they could manage 104\/6 in their allotted 20 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For India, Ekta Bisht scalped two wickets while Anuja Patil, Jhulan, Shikha Pandey and Preeti Bose contributed with one wicket each.<\/p>\r\n",
