Women's ODI World Cup 2025: Discussion thread

[Devadwal]

@Devadwal congratulations your other nemesis knocked out, so no more Eng vs Ind final this time

Our nemesis is already knockout without winning any game in this World Cup.

 

[globetrotter]

Finger crossed for today's India vs Australia semifinal as Mumbai and it's surrounding area have rains early morning.

LOL... Nobody rates them even 1 out of 10 and you're calling them your nemesis.. Standards are so low???

No sun light, overcast conditions in Mumbai and it's surrounding areas...

Looks like rain God is favoring Australia, yesterday it was in Canberra and today is in Navi Mumbai

99% no chance of match as it's started raining here......

 

[Vikram1989]

99% no chance of match as it's started raining here......

There is reserve day on tomorrow

 

[Devadwal]

The Australian women's team is in a league of its own. No one has even come close to them.

 

[Devadwal]

I don't think there will be complete washout but maybe 30-32 over game

 

[BouncerGuy]

Well then you should be trying to match them instead of talking about Pakistan women being your nemesis...LOL

 

[Devadwal]

There is reserve day on tomorrow

Tomorrow is more chance of rain untill 6 PM , today rain will clear in couple of hours.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Most likely Australia women will advance to the final, if Smriti & Harmanpreet fire together, India have a chance or else same old story.

 

[Devadwal]

Well then you should be trying to match them instead of talking about Pakistan women being your nemesis...LOL

Already Works in progress and reason why we are playing the semifinals instead knockout from the tournament from group stages

 

[globetrotter]

I don't think there will be complete washout but maybe 30-32 over game

May be, rain stopped now, buy still no sunshine..... hope match starts on time

 

[globetrotter]

Weather is clear now, hopefully match will start on time

 

[Devadwal]

Australia Women won the toss and elected to bat first.

Women's ho ya men's toss to harna hi hai.

Amanjot for harleen!! wat is that...radha straight after 1 good performance...Still can't decide strong 11 in 4 years

according to Kaur... Players are resting in Knockout game

 

[Devadwal]

Harmanpreet Kaur has won just one toss in last 10 ODIs - and that game ended in a no-result (vs BAN-W at this venue on Sunday)

 

[BouncerGuy]

Another toss loss for India... WOmen are not that far away from Men when it comes to toss..

A huge chase coming for India

 

[Devadwal]

Time to change the history

 

[BouncerGuy]

Time to change the history

Good luck

 

[Devadwal]

Girls already looking in under pressure. Started with two wides

 

[Devadwal]

Useless captain dropped a dolly.

 

[Devadwal]

Now misfield and four. Our fielding standards are really pathetic

 

[Devadwal]

Shabash karnti. Australia captain Bowled by here.

Now rain stopped the game. Australia 25/1

 

[globetrotter]

Rain's conspiracy....

When Australia's 1st wicket down, rain comes immediately

Yesterday in Canberra, SKY-Gill started hitting, rain came

 

[DeadlyVenom]

I hope India win this. An Indian final at home will be MASSIVE for the womans game.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

if it rained off what happens who will qualify

 

[Devadwal]

if it rained off what happens who will qualify

There is reserved day as well but if rained off then Australia will qualify.

As we speak rain has stopped and game will restart in 3 minutes

 

[Devadwal]

Sun is shining now.

 

[Devadwal]

Overthrow boundary. Damn

 

[globetrotter]

if it rained off what happens who will qualify

India needs to play out of their skin as Australia is a tough team.... physical fitness between 2 teams clearly visible

 

[Devadwal]

Yaar umpire call hi ho jata. ;kp

 

[DeadlyVenom]

India needs to play out of their skin as Australia is a tough team.... physical fitness between 2 teams clearly visible

Aussies have multi generational head start in womans game and fitness

India has done well to come close.

 

[BouncerGuy]

This lady, Phoebe, is dangerous.... India women are not ready for her.

 

[Devadwal]

Runs are flowing for Australia .

 

[Devadwal]

8 over 14 extra. Pathetic

 

[Devadwal]

350+ loading

 

[Devadwal]

Kranti 5 over 49 runs. Lol

 

[globetrotter]

India has done well to come close.

Indian women cricket should improve their physical fitness similar to men's team and also they need to work on their fielding.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Phoebe making it easy for her team to scoe freely after an early loss

 

[sweep_shot]

AUS - 81/1 (12.2 overs).

Aussies are smashing it.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Just tuned in, Aus absolutely rocking in the semis...
Hoping our spinners haul it in...

 

[BouncerGuy]

Brilliant stuff from Australia.... 300 should be easy here

 

[Devadwal]

Brilliant stuff from Australia.... 300 should be easy here

Enough rums already to win the match .

 

[harshjoshi87]

We should get our ftb men's captain Gilli to make runs for us on this paata. Typical paata a perfect wicket which our ftb prince excels on.

PS - now devadull will come up with a tuk tuk excuse.

 

[harshjoshi87]

On a serious note, we are in for a hammering tonight. No swing, no seam, no spin, absolute third class bowling attack getting exposed yet again. Harman's parchi Amanjot yet to bowl on this paata.

 

[kron]

You guys can’t be serious?
No sane person can watch these women play
No offense

It’s like watching district level teams play

I bet even arunachal paradesh ranji team would smash these women.

And they want equal pay lmao

keep the faith bro...our girls will make an minimum of 1 more than whatever they get ....

 

[Devadwal]

Australia is absolutely dominating the game.

 

[Devadwal]

Earn good money so far but disappointed performance by India.

 

[Devadwal]

Mighty Aussies will score 360 plus if they bowl this type of rubbish bowling

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Phoebe Litchfield has amazing batspeed, good windup for the batswing, really good footwork to get into position....+ facing bowling of not real great quality....century loading.....

 

[DeadlyVenom]

If you expect them to bowl like Bumrah and bat like Kohli you will be disappointed.

Treat it as different version of the sport with it's own quirk and nuances and it is very interesting.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Must say D Y Patil stadium, Navi Mumbai looks good, am sure the spectator experience in watching matches sitting there must be an absolute upgrade over 90 pc of other indian stadiums...

 

[Ab Fan]

Another 359/2 coming….

@Devadwal @kron

 

[Local.Dada]

Another 359/2 coming….

@Devadwal @kron

At this point looks more than 359

 

[Ab Fan]

2003 final yaad aa gaya bhaiyo…!

 

[Devadwal]

Brilliant century by Phoebe Litchfield just in 77 ball

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

100- phoebe litchfield....wonderful innings....what a player!

 

[Devadwal]

2003 final yaad aa gaya bhaiyo…!

Yes that day punter smashed indian bowler's

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

2003 final yaad aa gaya bhaiyo…!

yeah...Ricky and Martyn - dono ne baand bajayi....
till that point our bowling attack had done good. Even though i felt SG took wrong decision to bowl first after winning toss - i was confident in the way Sri, Zak and Nehraji were bowling and had harbie and others....that was the start of a barn storming run by aus in intl cricket ....they were just too good...our guys had their moments in that tournament though...but aus were dominating

 

[Local.Dada]

30 waala match nahi chahiye tha Harmanpreetji . Seems like a belt treatment for the ages loading.

 

[Local.Dada]

Yes that day punter smashed indian bowler's

Mat yaad dilao bhai, need to watch Asia cup matches highlights now to forget the pain

 

[Local.Dada]

Finally a wicket

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Big wicket.

India need to claw one or two more

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

phew....finally she goes....but what an outstanding innigns....not even one wrong shot...

 

[AZulfi]

Dominant Australia 188/2 after29 overs

India need quick wickets otherwise 350 plus is on

 

[RexRex]

phew....finally she goes....but what an outstanding innigns....not even one wrong shot...

She is so good to watch. I saw several of her classy innings in the Hundred.

 

[kron]

Yea but still do you really like watching the women’s team play?

Just so boring man

I don’t mind women’s tennis sometimes cause there are some really athletic women in that sport. Cricket just seems way too boring to watch when women play.

 

[Local.Dada]

She is so good to watch. I saw several of her classy innings in the Hundred.

I appreciate you for watching the hundred, now I bow down before you for watching the women’s hundred . You are the true cricket fan

 

[AZulfi]

A strong batting side

There Aussie batters average 48 or more
Lichfield, Perry and Mooney

Suntherland averages 42

Skipper Healy 35

Hence so dominant in the women’s game

 

[sweep_shot]

Australia are looking good for 330+.

 

[RexRex]

I appreciate you for watching the hundred, now I bow down before you for watching the women’s hundred . You are the true cricket fan

I don't watch the hundred. I was listening to some podcast .. i think it was stuart broad's. He was raving about how aesthetic her shots were, so I dug up some highlights of that innings. That's all, I promise !

 

[AZulfi]

phew....finally she goes....but what an outstanding innigns....not even one wrong shot...

A classy innings full of fluent confident strokes including 3 sixes. Strong on the off side

Still only 22

She can serve Australia for a long time.

Can play another 3 world cups at least

 

[RexRex]

These aussies are brutal.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Sutherland is daughter of the former CEO of ACB James Sutherland . His son also played some games for the international side.

That's solid cricket pedigree in that family.

 

[RexRex]

On yer bike, Annnabel.

 

[AZulfi]

India has some good batters too - Smriti Mandhana and Harmanpreet. They will need to bat well today.

Pratika Rawal not playing today!

 

[RexRex]

On yer bike, Perry.

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

5 down....need to get gardner....she's had several big match turning performances against us....a real fighter
