India players celebrate a Malaysian wicket during the Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup match in Kuala Lumpur yesterday

As many as six Malaysia batswomen fell for duck as India bundled them out for just 27 to register a resounding 142-run victory in their opening Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup match here yesterday. Electing to bat, India scored 169-3 in their allotted 20 overs, riding on senior player Mithali Raj's unbeaten 97 off 69 balls, and then shot the home side out in just 13.4 overs in a completely lop-sided match at Kinrara Academy Oval here.
