Proteas Women face India in the ICC World Cup final today in Mumbai, one win away from making history after a dominant win over England.
Jemimah Rodrigues' epic 127 leads India to one of the greatest World Cup wins, and provides them with a chance to change the women's game as we know it.
India captain Harmanpreet Kaur said winning the World Cup could be a turning point for the women's game in the cricket-crazy country. "Last time when we reached the final and came back to India we saw a big change," Kaur told reporters on Saturday.
It is easy to see why Australia start every women’s cricket tournament as the favourites. They boast seven 50-over world titles and six T20 World Cup trophies. From 2010 to 2024, there was only one major ICC final contested without Australia taking part.
Getting past Australia in the semi-final made the country take notice; but nothing captures the imagination of India's millions like a World Cup victory | ESPN.com
