India has achieved a monumental victory, stunning Australia to secure a spot in the ODI World Cup final. Chasing a record-breaking target of 339, Jemimah Rodrigues’ unbeaten 127 and Harmanpreet Kaur’s brilliant 89 were the cornerstones of this historic triumph. Cricket legends, including Rohit Sharma and Sachin Tendulkar, have lauded the team’s exceptional performance ahead of the November 2 final. The semi-final match, held at the DY Patil Cricket Stadium, saw India overcome the formidable Australian side, seven-time world champions. Australia’s impressive 338/3, powered by Phoebe Litchfield’s 119 and Ellyse Perry’s 77, initially seemed daunting. However, India’s remarkable chase, the highest ever in women’s ODIs, was anchored by a stunning 167-run partnership between Rodrigues and Kaur. Rodrigues battled through cramps to score her magnificent century, while captain Kaur provided crucial support. This incredible win sets up a final showdown against South Africa.
