Lord’s Win Proves It’s Time To Expand Women’s Test Schedule: Niranjana Nagarajan
Niranjana Nagarajan: India's historic 270-run victory over England in the first-ever women’s Test match played at Lord’s will go down as a watershed moment that will permanently shift how women's red-ball cricket is perceived globally, said former India pace-bowling all-rounder Niranjana Nagarajan.
On July 13, the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side scripted a landmark Test triumph at Lord’s by bundling out England for 186. Wicketkeeper-batter Yastika Bhatia carved 113 – the first-ever century hit in a women’s Test match at Lord’s, while Kranti Gaud’s five‑wicket haul secured her a place on the iconic honours board.
Off‑spin bowling all-rounder Sneh Rana wrapped up the contest with a four-wicket haul in the second innings, as India sealed their second-highest win by margin of runs in Women’s Tests and overall, the fourth biggest victory.
