The Women in Blue have faced many heartbreaks in the past, but they finally ended it on a sweet note. This is the third time India have qualified for the Women's ODI World Cup final. Earlier in 2005 and 2007, they ended up as the runners-up.

Records galore after India's historic run chase. This is the first time the Women in Blue have chased down a 200-plus target in the Women’s ODI World Cup history. India also registered the second-highest score in a Women’s ODI run-chase.

Earlier in the match, Australia won the toss and decided to bat against India.

Phoebe Litchfield's 119-run knock from 93 balls helped Australia power to 338 in the first innings. Ellyse Perry (77 runs from 88 balls) and Ashleigh Gardner (63 runs from 45 balls) also played a clutch knock.

During the run chase, India had a sloppy start after losing two quick wickets. However, Jemimah Rodrigues and Harmanpreet Kaur's 167-run knock made the run chase easier. In the end, Jemimah Rodrigues (127*) and Amanjot Kaur (15*) stayed unbeaten on the crease and guided India to a record-breaking win over Australia.

India will play against South Africa in the final match at the Women's World Cup 2025, at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, on November 2.
