In the 2020 Women’s T20 World Cup final, India’s dream run fell short against a dominant Australian side. Despite reaching the final for the first time, India fell 85 runs short, succumbing to the twin blows of Alyssa Healy’s 75 and Beth Mooney’s unbeaten 78. Their knocks enabled 184 which was huge, considering the magnitude of the game. While Deepti Sharma fought hard with 33, the Indian chase faltered against Megan Schutt’s 4-18 and Jess Jonassen’s 3-20. India were eventually bowled out for just 99. Though heartbroken, India earned plaudits for their spirited journey, igniting a passion for women’s cricket in the nation.
