Deepti Sharma became the leading wicket-taker in women's T20Is during India's Asia Cup opener against Thailand in Dubai. The all-rounder took three wickets in 1.1 overs without conceding a run as India secured a 94-run victory.
Shafali Verma scored 64 runs to set up the total. Deepti reached her 150th T20I cap in the match, joining Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana in India's elite group of players with that many appearances.
