Will Take Those 45 Sleepless Nights Any Day For This Moment: Smriti Mandhana After Winning Women’s World Cup
Dr DY Patil Sports Academy: India vice-captain Smriti Mandhana got emotional as she opened up about her team’s journey and victory at the World Cup after the Women in Blue lifted their maiden ICC title at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy here on Sunday night.
Mandhana scored 45 runs and raised 104 runs for the opening stand before being dismissed, but Shafali Verma (87) and Deepti Sharma’s knocks helped the side set the South Africans a target of 299 runs to chase. Deepti Sharma, the spin-bowling all-rounder, picked up a five-wicket haul (5-39) as India bundled out South Africa for 246 and lifted the Women’s World Cup trophy, making India only the fourth nation to win the Women's ODI World Cup.
Mandhana, speaking to the broadcasters after the historic victory, revealed that it felt good to get the feeling of victory after multiple heartbreaks in the past.
