The Indian women’s cricket team’s stunning semi-final victory over Australia in the ODI World Cup has earned high praise from batting maestro Virat Kohli. He described the impressive five-wicket win as a ‘true display of resilience, belief, and passion.’ Chasing a record 339 runs at the DY Patil Stadium, the ‘Women in Blue’ showcased exceptional batting prowess to reach their third ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup Final. Kohli took to X to commend the team’s effort, celebrating a ‘great chase’ and a ‘standout performance’ by Jemimah Rodrigues, who anchored the innings with a brilliant century. This historic chase is the second-highest in Women’s ODI history and the first time a total exceeding 300 has been successfully hunted down in an ODI World Cup knockout stage. India now faces the undefeated South Africa in the final on Sunday, with the ultimate prize being their first-ever Women’s World Cup title.
