Team India won the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup title by defeating South Africa on Sunday. India won the World Cup title for the first time by defeating South Africa by 52 runs in the final. Amanjot Kaur, who made an important contribution in making Team India the champion with her strong fielding, made a big statement after the victory regarding the coach of South African captain Laura Wolvaardt.

Let us tell you that Amanjot did excellent fielding in the final match. He gave the first blow to South Africa by running out opener Tajmin Britts. Brits had made a half-century opening partnership with captain Wolvaardt. After this, Amanjot took a brilliant catch of Wolvaardt in the 42nd over when she was standing between India and victory after completing her century.

South Africa needed 79 runs in the last eight overs and Wolvaardt, who scored 169 runs against England in the semi-finals, was preparing to play big shots after completing a century in the final also. He played Deepti Sharma’s ball towards deep midwicket and the ball slipped from Amanjot’s hand twice, but he completed the catch in the third attempt and energized the team players along with the spectators present in the stadium.

Amanjot said after the match, “That was the toughest catch of my life. Never before had the ball slipped from my hand like this. I would either take the catch or miss it. This is the first time that God has given me three chances. Wolvaardt’s catch was very important and after her century, we knew that she would try to play big shots from one end.”

Amanjot said that she wanted to compensate for the failure of bat and ball through fielding. She said, “I could not make a big contribution with the bat and was also not very effective in bowling, so my focus was on making up for that deficiency with better fielding. I knew that if the fielding was good, we could increase the problems for South Africa by saving some runs.”

Amanjot had earlier increased South Africa’s problems by running out the Brits. The Brits, who were trying to steal runs on his accurate throw, had to return to the pavilion. He said, “At the time of South Africa’s batting, the pitch had become a bit batting-friendly. We were talking about the fact that it is very important to break the partnership. We did not want to let any opportunity go by hand. After dew falls in floodlights, fielding becomes difficult.”

The final match of the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup is being played between India and South Africa in Navi Mumbai. After losing the toss and opting to bat first, Team India has put 298 runs on the board in 50 overs. For India, opener Shefali Verma played a brilliant inning of 87 runs in 78 balls. However, she missed scoring a century. His partner Smriti Mandhana scored 45 runs. Both also made a century partnership. In the end, Deepti Sharma and Richa Ghosh batted strongly and took the score close to 300. However, Team India could score only 36 runs in the last 5 overs. This was the reason why the Indian team could not cross 300.

At one time it seemed that the Indian team would easily reach 320, but the South African bowlers did not allow the Indian batsmen to hit big shots in the death overs. India’s score was 262 runs in 45 overs. Still, Team India could not touch the figure of 300. Still, this is the second highest score in the final in the history of Women’s ODI World Cup.

For India, Smriti Mandhana scored 45 runs in 58 balls with the help of 8 fours. Shefali Verma hit 7 fours and two sixes during her innings of 87 runs in 78 balls. Last match’s centurion Jemimah Rodriguez was out after scoring 24 runs in 37 balls. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur’s bat also did not work. He scored 20 runs in 29 balls with two fours.

Deepti Sharma was run out on the last ball after scoring 58 runs in 58 balls. Three fours and one six came from his bat. Richa Ghosh scored an important 34 runs. In his inning of 24 balls, he hit 3 fours and 2 sixes. Amanjot Kaur was out after scoring 12 runs.

For South Africa, Ayabonga Khaka took 3 wickets for 58 runs in 9 overs. Apart from this, Chloe Tryon, Nonkululeko Mlaba and Nadine de Klerk took one wicket each.

The World Cup final between India and South Africa is being played in Navi Mumbai. The Indian team came to bat first. Shefali Verma closed the game with a strong half-century of 87 runs. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma and Sachin Tendulkar also reached the stadium to boost the morale of the Indian team. Many pictures are going viral on social media. Rohit Sharma, Jay Shah, Nita Ambani and Sachin Tendulkar are seen together in a picture.

Rohit Sharma and Sachin Tendulkar themselves have been part of the World Cup winning Indian team. Team India won the 2024 T20 World Cup under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma.

IND-W vs SA-W Final: Even Sachin Tendulkar was surprised to see Shefali Verma’s 73 meter long six, played an amazing inning of 87 runs in the World Cup final.

Rain has interfered in the final match between India and South Africa. The final match of the Women’s World Cup will be played at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. India entered the finals by defeating Australia in the semi-finals and South Africa defeated England in the semi-finals. The toss of the India-South Africa final match was also delayed. The biggest question is that if the match could not be played today due to rain, then who will be declared the winner?

What are the rules when it rains?

If the final match cannot be held today due to rain, then November 3 has been kept as reserve day. But today an effort will be made to conduct at least 20-20 overs matches. The cut-off time of the 20-20 overs match will be 9:08 pm. If the rain stops by 9.08 pm then a 20-20 overs match is possible.

If it rains again after the start of the 20-20 overs match, the match will not be continued. In that case reserve day will be used. The priority will be to bring the result of the final match today itself. If the match cannot start then the match will be played tomorrow on Reserve Day.

What if it rains even on the reserve day?

If the final match cannot be started or completed even on 3rd November, i.e. Reserve Day, due to rain or any other reason, then both the teams will be declared joint winners. This has never happened in the history of the Women’s World Cup, when any two teams have been declared joint winners.

Till now only Australia, England and New Zealand have been able to win the Women’s World Cup trophy. Before this, Team India reached the finals twice, but could never become champion. On the other hand, South Africa has reached the final for the first time in 2025.

Wave of mourning in Indian cricket before the Women’s World Cup final! Former cricketer dies in road accident

Smriti Mandhana, Shefali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Harmanpreet Kaur (captain), Amanjot Kaur, Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh (wicketkeeper), Sneh Rana/Radha Yadav, Kranti Gaur, Sri Charani, Renuka Thakur.

2 November 2025, this date can write a new chapter in Indian cricket. On this day, India and South Africa will face each other in the final of the Women’s World Cup 2025. No matter who becomes the winner, this time women’s ODI cricket is going to get a new champion, because India and South Africa have never won the World Cup trophy. Both the teams are in great rhythm. In such a situation, before the final, know about those 3 shortcomings, if Team India overcomes them then it will be almost certain that it will become the champion.

1. Shefali Verma will have to walk

Before the semi-final match, Pratika Rawal was opening with Smriti Mandhana. Unfortunately, Pratika is out of the tournament due to injury, Shefali Verma has been brought as her replacement. Verma is known for her explosive batting, but she will have to compensate for Pratika Raval, who had scored 308 runs at an average of 51.33 in the tournament before the injury. With the opening partnership between Shefali and Smriti Mandhana, the Indian team will be able to lay the foundation of a big score.

2. Fielding needs to be better

In the second semi-final, the Indian team dropped many catches and wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh also missed an easy stumping. The result of poor fielding was that in the semi-finals, Indian fielders missed 2 catches, missed one stumping and gave away 8 runs through overthrow. In the final, the Indian team will have to improve its fielding against South Africa.

3. It is necessary to get Laura Woolworth out early.

Laura Woolworth is the real run machine of the South African team. In the current World Cup, she has scored 470 runs in 8 matches, which is the highest. Woolworth had also played an inning of 70 runs against India in the league stage match. Woolworth has been the leading run-scorer for South Africa in the last 3 ICC tournaments. By dismissing Woolworth, Team India’s chances of winning the final will double.

The final of the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup will be played between India and South Africa in Navi Mumbai on Sunday. The South African team has reached the final of the Women’s ODI World Cup for the first time, while Team India will play the title match for the third time. Both the teams have not won the World Cup title yet. The Indian women’s cricket team under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur is one win away from creating history in the ODI World Cup and in such a situation, there is tremendous excitement among the fans about this match, but they are facing disappointment due to not getting tickets.

After the performance of the Indian team in the semi-finals, a crowd of fans can be seen outside the DY Patil Stadium for tickets for the final. To attract spectators to the stadium, the ticket price started at just Rs 100, but till Saturday afternoon, tickets were not available for spectators in the stadium.

Pandian Parimal of Thane district told that he had come to the stadium in the morning but no one is getting tickets here. He said, “I have come here since 9 in the morning, but there is a lot of crowd here and no one is getting tickets. Tickets are not available even through online medium. A large number of people have come here.”

Another fan Shiftain Iftar said that he has been coming here for two days for tickets, but did not get any response here. We were told yesterday (Friday) that tickets will start being available from 12 noon today, but after reaching here in the morning, it is already afternoon, but no information is available about the tickets.

Female fans were also seen waiting outside the stadium to buy tickets. Fan Kishori Dholpuriya, who came from Mumbai, alleged black marketing of tickets and said, we are not being given any information here. We are standing here in the sun and rain, but despite trying for three days, we are unable to find any trace of the ticket.

Local fan Aanchal said that we were told a day ago that the gates for tickets would be opened from 12 noon today, but even after a lot of time has passed, nothing is known. He said that if the tickets are sold out then they should be told that tickets are not available.

When an attempt was made to talk to the stadium managers to know the status of ticket availability, no clear answer was received from them either.
