"Winning on the field and off it," reads the caption of the post.

Earlier, after opting to bowl first, the Shafali Verma-led side bowled England out for 68. While Titas Sadhu, Archana Devi and Parshavi Chopra bagged 2 wickets each, Mannat Kashyap, Shafali Verma, and Mannat Kashyap scalped a wicket each. Apart from their clinical bowling display, the team was superb on the field overall, affecting a run out as well as taking a few splendid catches with the wicketkeeper also getting to affect a stumping.

In response, despite losing captain Shafali and leading run-scorer Shweta Sehrawat early, the Women in Blue reached their target with 36 balls to spare. Just before the finish line, the Women in Blue did lose Gongadi Trisha but by that time India were on course to register the win which they did in the next over itself with Soumya Tiwari hitting the winning runs.

Sadhu bagged the Player of the Match Award for her performance in the final. She returned with exceptional figures of 2 for 6 in her 4 overs, setting up the stage for a dominating Indian performance in the match. Speaking at the post-match press-conference she said that the team had played 2 matches at this venue before and even witnessed the other matches being played here which helped them curate their plans accordingly.

"It's really surreal. Have been looking forward to this day for a long time. We had a plan in our mind, and thankfully we executed what we planned. The spinners backed up really well. We have played 2 matches and watched all the games that happened here, and had a pretty good idea where to bowl," she said.
