With this, Team India have managed to bowl out Barbados at 62 runs. The whole attention was given to Renuka Singh’s inswinger that dismissed Aaliyah Alleyne.In the 5th over of Barbados' batting innings, Renuka threw an inswinger towards Alleyne, after which the batter was left completely puzzled.
The ball nipped back with the angle and the Barbados batter for some odd reason chose to not offer any shot.
