Quick Read
Just three Sundays ago, Harmanpreet Kaur & Co outclassed South Africa by 52 runs in the Women’s ODI World Cup at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on November 2 by winning their maiden World Cup. And this Sunday, Deepika TC led India’s blind women’s team to a dominant seven-wicket win over Nepal to clinch the maiden Blind Women’s T20 World Cup at the P Sara Oval in Colombo.
India put Nepal in to bat and restricted them to 114-5 in the allotted 20 overs. Sarita Ghimire and Bimala Rai scored 35 and 26 respectively for Nepal. Though India lost Deepika and Anekha Devi early, Phula Saren (27-ball 44 not out) and Karuna (42 off 27 balls) ensured victory for the team in just 12 overs.
