Mithali Raj's story will continue to inspire generations of women in a predominantly male sport. But her quiet sendoff shows why BCCI needs to step up.
India raced to top of the table with a 155-run win over Stafanie Taylor’s side, who, despite dominating performance from openers, collapsed from 100-0 after 12 overs to 162 all out.
India were heading for defeat after losing 5 wickets for 18 runs, but a 122-run partnership from Vastrakar and Rana took the game away from Pakistan, with India winning by 107 runs.
With runners-up finishes in last ODI and T20 World Cups in 2017 and 2020, Mithali Raj-led India are looking to finally win a big trophy. But quality and form are issues.
