India’s Historic Win in Women’s Test Match Against England
Navimumbai ∙ In a historic victory, India’s women’s cricket team defeated England by a record 347 runs in the test match at the DY Patil Stadium. This win has set a new record for the biggest win by a team in terms of runs in the Women’s Test.
From the start of the match, India demonstrated their dominance in all aspects of the game, including batting, bowling, and fielding. England struggled to match India’s performance, with their fight ending with only 131 runs while chasing a daunting target of 479 runs in the second innings.
Indian all-rounder Deepti Sharma emerged as the player of the match after taking a total of 9 wickets in two innings and also scoring a crucial half-century in the first innings. This win comes as a significant rebound for India, who had previously lost the 3-match Twenty20 series to England. Additionally, this marks the first time that India has beaten England at home in Test cricket.
Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur praised the performance of her team’s bowlers, emphasizing their brilliant execution of the game plan. In contrast, England captain Heather Knight acknowledged the surprise at the performance of the Indian pacers, and the effectiveness of the spinners on the pitch.
The remarkable bowling performance of Deepti Sharma, achieving figures of 9 for 39, is the second best by an Indian player in women’s Tests. In addition to this achievement, it’s important to note that women’s Test matches differ from men’s, with a shorter match duration, longer daily overs, and differences in boundary distance, ball size, and weight.
This historical win by India’s women’s cricket team against England has created a new chapter in the nation’s cricketing history, and serves as a testament to the team’s outstanding performance and determination. Their next challenge will be a Test match against Australia on the 21st.
