Arundhati Reddy picked up three wickets as Pakistan struggled against India's bowlers, reaching 105-8 in their Women's T20 World Cup match in Dubai on Sunday.

Nida Dar top-scored with 28 from 34 balls but there was little else for Pakistan to cheer after skipper Fatima Sana had won the toss and elected to bat first on a wicket that produced some awkward bounce.

Renuka Singh produced a fine inswinger to bowl Gull Feroza in the first over and Pakistan never recovered.
