India women started the Women’s World Cup 2025 campaign with two consecutive victories against Sri Lanka in Guwahati before earning another victory against Pakistan. But they faced three successive defeats against the Proteas, England, and Australia.
“Come on, India!! Let’s do this.” Devdutt Padikkal congratulated the Blue Brigade before Rajat Patidar joined them in the conversation, “You guys have been very inspiring and a great treat to watch every single time. You guys go out there. All the best, India; make India proud and create history. It’s a chance to create history, and let’s win the World Cup at home.”
But the 53-run win against New Zealand was enough for the Blue Brigade to secure the tickets for the semifinal. Their win over Australia by five wickets in the semifinal will be a massive confidence booster ahead of the final.
