It was Mon🌼golia women's second consecutive defeat in the tournament as they had also lost match 2 against China women on Tuesday.
The Odzaya Erdenebaatar-l🐓ed Mongolia side opted to field first after winning the toss and invited South Korea to bat first. South Korean women made 145/4 after 20 overs thanks to the captain Seungmin Song's 56-ball 53 which included seven boundaries.
The opener batter Seri Chang also played a 26-run knock off just 32 balls. The middle-order 𝐆batters stru🐭ggled to accelerate in the death over and somehow managed to score 145 runs.
Mo💧ngolia captain Erdene𒀰baatar came to open the batting and struggled to open her run account. She faced 22 balls and then went back without making any runs. Another opener batter Batjargal Ichinkhorloo made 32 runs off 54 balls.
Mongolia women were unable to accelerate their run-chase an�✅�d made only 112 runs with the loss of three wickets in 20 overs. Seri Chang bowled a brilliant spell of 4-0-14-2.
The Korean captain Seungmin Song was given the Player of the Match award for her inning. After this win, South Korea stand at number t💮hree in the points table after China and Hong Kong.
