While the Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian team toiled hard to win all four of their Women’s World Cup matches (vs New Zealand, Bangladesh, Australia and South Africa) including Sunday’s final at the DY Patil Stadium to emerge world champions, behind the scenes, a bunch of men worked equally hard, if not more, to ensure that no match was affected by the city’s unseasonal showers.
