Goswami's Girls Aim To Go One Better

Labels: , ,



The ‘2005 Women's Cricket World Cup’ was a dream run for the Indian eves as they finished second, only behind Australia. But this time they aren’t leaving a single stone unturned, thriving to go one better. The Indian women showed some resilience and a lot of nerve when they defeated the tournament hosts and favorites Australia by 16 runs, soon after they had been routed by England.
India is currently coming 2nd in the Super Six Table with 4 points in their kitty, two below England and marginally over New Zealand, Australia, Pakistan and the West Indies with all teams having two matches left.
India next plays the white ferns(NZ) at the North Sydney Oval on March the 19
and the Windies two days later. To qualify for the finals, they have to either win both the matches or at least defeat New Zealand and also maintain a good Net Run Rate.
The top two teams from the Super Six will play in the Finals on the 22nd and lets hope India is one of them.

Women's day(s) Out

Labels: , , , ,



The ICC Women's World Cup started on the eve of International Women's Day, making the event look a bit bigger success. Well lets hope the event is a huge success. In fact it is already turning out to be a huge success. Women are making it clear that they can play the gentlemen's game like them. Women can be seen anticipating the ball hard and diving more often. They are taking deep interest in the game and are giving 100% commitment.
Other than great action the women are also setting records. Pakistan registered their first ever win against Sri Lanka after losing horribly to India. On the opening day India beat Pakistan by 10 wickets. Australia defeated all their opponents as they are the favourites for the tournament. Earlier in the day India was defeated by England by 9 wickets. It clearly pointed that India still need more practice to face class opponents. I also feel that Women's cricket need's an overhaul. These matches are played at neutral venues and are compared to the u-19 men's cricket. So, women might probably have to wait more to experience world class facalities.
