That brings an end to our coverage of this exhilarating semi-final. Difficult to beat this, but hope that the final between SL Women and India Women is even more entertaining and close. We'll be back on Sundary with its coverage. For now, you can switch tabs and follow our live coverage of other ongoing games. Ciao!
Chamari Athapaththu | PoTM, SL captain: The game was tight, I got out but my girls finished it off in style. I hope my girls will play in this way in the final (against India.) We batted really good, though we lost a couple of wickets early. I took my time, as a senior batter I had to lead from the front. I tried to finish the game, but unfortunately got out (at the wrong time.) The final is an important game, but we don't want any pressure. We just want to enjoy the final. This was a magnificent game. (Thanks the SL fans) in conclusion.
Nida Dar | PAK captain: Heart-broken totally. The young players were positive, need to appreciate them. We were 10-15 runs short I think. 140 could have been defended, it went to the last ball. Youngsters played really well, that needs to be appreciated.
22:18 Local Time, 16:48 GMT, 22:18 IST: That was one interesting clash as we had anticipated even before it started. Pakistan notched up a solid first innings total having put in to bat first. And the Sri Lankan batters made sure to make the run chase interesting. Their fielding and bowling wasn't that great, but the Sri Lankan batters put up an excellent show in the run chase.
