Indian women’s team won gold at the International Blind Sports Federation World Games held in Birmingham. India defeated Australia in the rain-fought final. The Indian team, which performed brilliantly throughout the tournament, did it once more in the finals.
Batting first, Australia scored 114 runs for the loss of eight wickets in 20 overs in a match where India’s batsmen and bowlers filled the field. The Indian bowlers caught the Aussies who lost their first wicket in the fourth over.
Australia scored 29 runs in the Powerplay but tried to play big innings but India dominated by taking wickets at regular intervals.
But C Lewis and C Wibeck made a good partnership and pulled the Aussies out of a big slump. Both of them built a partnership of 54 runs.
But India’s bowling tactics killed the Aussies’ momentum. Australia eventually reached a manageable score of 114.
But with the arrival of rain, India’s victory target was reassessed. India’s revised target was 42 off nine overs.
But India played an attacking style and won by losing only one wicket in the third ball of the third over.
With this, India has written its name in the history book of IBSA World Games. This is the first time that cricket has been included as a competitive event in the World Games. India shone by winning gold.
Along with the Indian women’s team, the men’s team also entered the finals of the Blind Cricket. The opponents of the Indian men’s team are Pakistan.
