The consistent underperformance of India in women's cricket is both kinda funny, but also incredibly annoying.

Funny because the BCCI is the most powerful and probably financially strongest of the cricket governing bodies.

But annoying because they don't fund the women's team near enough to make the into an actually consistently competitive team.

I know that the Black Caps aren't representative of stuff in the wider context, but if tiny New Zealand can turn an underappreciated men's national sports team into something that can compete for the biggest prizes then India sure as hell could turn their women's team into more of a force than they are now.

Okay. I’m going to go there. Here are my thoughts on this travesty of a match. But first:

Now, I understand the points made about Choice of Pitch and Crowd Support. I do believe the outcome would’ve been different if we’d played anywhere except Ahmedabad. And as hosts, we’ve got to give our players every advantage, including a pitch that tilts in their favour.* BUT what about all the tournaments we didn’t host? We’ve consistently made the semis and finals of almost every single major international trophy in the past decade. We’re practically giants. We don’t need a pitch advantage to win a match - we’ve demonstrated that we can get the job done and we can do it anywhere, any pitch, any country. So why can’t we win when it matters most?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: cricket is just as much as a mental game as any other sport. We need to take note of this pattern and do something to address it. I’m not saying a sports psychologist will solve all our problems but it’s certainly a start. The minute Travis Head began to hit a few boundaries, shoulders began to droop. There were times when the fielding was so lax it felt like they couldn’t be bothered to do it faster because “eh, it’s just a single run.” Australia was on fire today. Not a single mistake, not a single toe out of line. They were in the zone, serious from the get go - and they got the job done. I have never seen that kind of coordination and perfection from our Indian team. We’re always wobbly in places, and then are stabilised and carried through by the stellar performance of a few players (who vary from match to match). We can talk about Batting Depth and Hardik’s absence from the team etc etc but the fact of the matter is we are capable enough to win on any pitch, in any conditions, as we’ve shown before, time and time again. But not if it’s a final. And I just think that’s a problem worth addressing with a solution that goes beyond “shiny new pitch, better gyms, and new talent.”

Domestic violence against women increases after the defeat of the favorite team, be it cricket, football, basketball etc around the world. So I hope, women in India are safe.

When England lost in the football world cup, violence against women increased too.

Women in India, stay safe.

Less than a run a ball chase…. 😓

There has been one game so far that has gone over it (IND vs NZ) - is this normal? I’m quite new to the women’s game but these feel very low scoring…

[just2bubbly]

take me back to last October when we crushed everyone so hard on our home grounds and won 11 consecutive matches, and everything seemed possible and the passion was so INSANE home

[myauditionfordrphil]

If the ball was dead then why did Kerr run for second???? She herself was walking out knowing that she was out then why all this mess??

[perfec11on]

WE ARE SO BACK! india won by 6 wickets 🥺
