Sharmila had a superb eagle on Par-5 seventh, but she also dropped a double on par-3 third besides four other bogeys. The Hero-supported Indian golfer is now tied-32nd and will look forward to a strong finish in the third and final round.
The other three Indians in the field, Gaurika Bishnoi (79-74), Amandeep Drall (73-81) and Vani Kapoor (79-82) failed to make the 36-hole cut.
England's Holly Clyburn played what she called was a 'game of two halves' after she recorded a second round of 69 to keep her two-stroke lead. The 27-year-old carded six birdies and three bogeys on a day of mixed weather conditions at Bonville Golf Resort. She is now eight-under-par and two clear of Celine Boutier (70-68).
Boutier of France and Olivia Cowan from Germany, who both shot 68s, were her nearest challengers, Boutier having posted the clubhouse target of six-under before Clyburn teed off.
Iceland's Valdis Thora Jonsdottir backed up her opening round with a solid 70 and lies three shots off the lead. Australian Hannah Green is the leading Australian in a share of fifth place on four-under with Nanna Koerstz Madsen of Denmark and both players shot second rounds of 70.
