India World T20 Champions
The blind Women’s T20 World Cup was jointly hosted by Sri Lanka and India, where the final took place in the Island nations oldest venue, P. Saravanamuttu Stadium. As far as the match is concerned, Phula Saren top-scored for India with 44 from 27 deliveries, to make it rather one-sided contest.
Beat Nepal in Final
As for Nepal; such was IND’s dominance with the ball, that they only conceded one boundary in the entire innings. In the tournament, the hosts had a great outing, and beat Australia in the semis recently, to reach the summit clash. Nepal, on the other hand, got rid of Pakistan in the semis.
Co-hosts Sri Lanka were poor in the tournament, and won only one match against the USA in all their encounters. Pakistan batter Mehreen Ali proved to be the best in the tournament, as she went on to score a massive over 600 runs, including 230 vs SL and 133 vs AUS.
