**Dubai, October 6th:** Renuka Singh, the Indian fast bowler, sent a shockwave through the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday as she dismissed Pakistan’s Gull Feroza with a devastating in-swinger in the first over of their Women’s T20 World Cup clash.
Having been put in to field first, India got the early breakthrough thanks to Renuka’s deadly delivery. Feroza, who had been handed the strike by Muneeba Ali, found herself caught off guard as Renuka bowled a ball that moved sharply towards the off-stump, leaving Feroza rooted to the spot.
Known for her ability to swing the ball both ways, Renuka showcased her expertise against Feroza, who was unable to open her account. Pakistan were left reeling at 1/1 after the first over.
While Renuka bowled a bit erratically in her second over, conceding a few boundaries to Muneeba Ali, she finished the powerplay with impressive figures of 2-0-13-1. Pakistan reached 29 for two at the end of the sixth over.
Renuka had previously impressed in India’s opening match against New Zealand, claiming the wickets of Amelia Kerr and Brooke Halliday. Despite her strong performance, India fell short against the White Ferns, losing the match by 78 runs.
With this early wicket against Pakistan, Renuka Singh has made a strong statement of intent, setting the stage for an exciting and potentially crucial tournament for India.
