In response, the UAE could only manage 123/7 in their allotted overs, despite a spirited effort. This comprehensive win places India on the brink of the semifinals, with one group match remaining against Nepal.

Harmanpreet Kaur, India Captain: "I am absolutely fine. It was a great feeling especially when Jemi [Rodrigues] and I were batting. We were looking to run hard rather than playing risky shots. When Richa came I told her to keep watching the ball and she batted beautifully.
"[Her knock] My role was to stay on the pitch and keep rotating the strike. We had a good partnership especially with Richa. Credit goes to her. [On her memories of 175 against Australia] That was a special innings for me. Was a great memory. Really happy that innings came from me. It always gave me positive vibes. [Playing fearlessly] Today also we lost early wickets but we kept ourselves ready."
Richa Ghosh, Player of the Match: "Whenever I am playing with Harry [Harmanpreet] di, she tells me how the ball is coming on and how to play the shots. Whenever I get the opportunity, I want to back myself. The first four from a cover drive was my favourite."
Esha Oza, UAE Captain: "[Experience] It was a great experience. Lots of learnings. How to build an innings, that is something we saw first hand, and how to finish games. This is what we need to work on.
"We were never satisfied when playing such a big team. We need to make sure we need to take 10 wickets and not three. [Next game] We put up a better score against a better side. We have one more game, and want to take the learnings to that game."
