Women’s World Cup 2025: Women’s World Cup 2025 has reached its decisive point. Now there is a contest between India and Australia in Semi-Final-2. That is, between two such teams, whose competition increases the heartbeats of cricket fans every time. This time too, all eyes are on Team India captain Harmanpreet Kaur. He had played an explosive inning against Australia on the same stage 8 years ago, which is still called the “Golden Chapter” of cricket history.
Memories of 2017 and hopes of 2025
In 2017, Harman had given India a ticket to the final by scoring 171 runs in just 115 balls against Australia at the Derby ground of England. That inning not only changed the course of the match but also took the popularity of women’s cricket to new heights. Now in 2025, same spirit and same opposition team. The same ‘Harman Storm’ is being expected from Harmanpreet Kaur to once again get the ticket for the final for India.
Harman’s dominance against Australia
Harmanpreet’s record shows that she knows how to play big innings against big teams. So far she has scored 749 runs in 24 ODI matches against Australia. During this period his best score has been 171 runs. He has scored four half-centuries and one century, while his average is 35.66. In the World Cup matches, he has scored 1027 runs with his bat at an average of 44.65. He is also an option for the team in bowling, although he has only 7 wickets in his name in this department.
Captain’s form and team’s confidence
In the current tournament, Harman’s bat has not performed as per expectations. He has scored only 151 runs and one half-century in 7 innings, but his experience and fighting spirit are the biggest strengths of the team. Coaches and fellow players agree that “Harman is a big-match player”, and her bat speaks for itself in a pressure-packed match like a semi-final.
