There's just one thing left to do and that's for Harmanpreet Kaur to go and lift the trophy and celebrate with her team. What a year 2025 has been for Women's cricket in general, but it has been extra special for the Women in Blue as they picked up a maiden ODI World Cup title, that too in front of a home crowd and they will be so pleased with the way they have finished the year as well. In 2026, the focus shifts to the Women's T20 World Cup, which is to be played later in the year in England and all teams will be looking forward to it. For now, we hope you enjoyed the coverage and we wish everyone tuning in a Happy New Year in advance. Until next time, take care and goodbye!
The captain of India, Harmanpreet Kaur says 2025 has been a really rewarding year for the team, with the players now seeing the results of the hard work they have put in. She stresses the importance of continuing to repeat good habits and building consistency. Kaur adds that there has been a strong focus on improving strike rates and intent with the bat. Feels it is her responsibility to provide strength and direction to the batting unit, and she is pleased with the way the team has gone about its cricket. Harmanpreet admits that the shift from ODIs to T20Is was not easy, but says the group was excited to play the series and she is happy with how everything came together. She also highlights how important it was for everyone to be available for the series. Looking ahead, she notes that the Women’s T20 League will be important, and with the next six months crucial, she hopes the team can continue to raise the bar.
Shafali Verma is the PLAYER OF THE SERIES for scoring 241 big runs at an avg of 80.33 in this series. Shafali says that the work she put in throughout the year shone through in this series and she just tried to learn from her mistakes and become a better player. Adds that sometimes everything works out, which boosts your confidence and sometimes a few of them don't, which pushes you to work harder. Reckons that ODI and T20I cricket is still pretty different because you need to play more alomg the ground in the 50-over format but T20 is something that she loves and enjoys a lot.
Harmanpreet Kaur is adjudged the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for her brilliant knock.
Chamari Athapaththu, the captain of Sri Lanka, admits that they did not play their best cricket in the series, pointing out a few areas of concern, particularly power-hitting. She highlights the performances of the youngsters as a major positive, noting that they took their opportunities and gave their best. Feels that, including herself, the seniors did not play their best cricket as experienced players. Chamari adds that there is a lot to think about heading into the World Cup, but she is looking forward to the next few months and hopes the team can play their best cricket when it matters most. She reflects that her team was playing good cricket six to seven months ago and reiterates the coach’s message of trusting skills and playing with freedom. Believes that they gave a good fight, but the results did not go their way.
The Presentation ceremony...
Earlier in the game, Chamari Athapaththu won the toss for the second game running and opted to chase. India Women handed a debut to young Kamalini G but it was a game where both their openers misfired. Up stepped the skipper, Harmanpreet Kaur, and she looked in a devastating mood. Later in the fray, Amanjot Kaur played a handy knock but it was the fiery cameo from Arundhati Reddy right at the death that got India to a formidable total of 175 runs. As for Sri Lanka Women, they bowled well in the first half of the innings but a few too many wides and boundaries cost them dearly later on.
Sri Lanka Women had the platform but the scoreboard pressure started to tell. Amanjot Kaur got rid of Dulani, who had just notched up a maiden T20I fifty, off the first ball of the 12th over and after that, India Women started to control the game and their spinners kept on picking up wickets at regular intervals. Hasini Perera tried to anchor the innings but kept running out of partners at the other end. All of India's 6 bowlers picked up a wicket each and they were solid in the outfield as well. Perera top-scored for the Lankans with a fine 65 off just 42 balls but it wasn't enough.
Needing 176 for the victory, it was always going to be a tough ask for Sri Lanka Women but they had made 191 runs in the previous game, so it wasn't a target beyond reach. After losing their talismanic skipper, Chamari Athapaththu, early in the chase, the Lankans started to fire back. Hasini Perera and Imesha Dulani got them to 86/1 at the end of the 11th over, a point where India were 79/5 in their innings and the game could have gone anywhere at that stage.
India Women end a historic 2025 with a 5-0 hammering of Sri Lanka Women in the T20 format and Harmanpreet's side has become one of the most clinical outfits in Women's cricket. On the other hand, Sri Lanka will be disappointed but the way they have batted in the last two games gives them a lot of hope for the future.

FOUR! Attack is the mantra after the break for Sri Lanka Women. Tossed up around off, Imesha Dulani steps out and hits into out and gets it over the cover region. Deepti Sharma chases after it but the ball wins the race to the ropes.
Drinks Break! At the halfway mark in the chase, Sri Lanka Women have just lost 1 wicket for 75 runs but they need to step on the gas a bit more as they still require 101 more runs to win. India Women haven't been able to get regular breakthroughs but have stemmed the flow of runs after the Powerplay and Harmanpreet Kaur will hope that the young left-arm spin duo of Sree Charani and Vaishnavi Sharma is able to get a few wickets as well to tighten the screws. Let's see if this one goes down to the wire or not.

Imesha gets down the pitch and sets up to flick it away, but ends up playing all over it. The ball sneaks past the inside edge and hits the batter below the kneeroll on the front pad. The ball is passing close to the bat but there is no spike on UltraEdge when the ball is next to the blade. The Ball Tracking shows that the ball is crashing into the top of the leg pole but the impact is umpire's call (more than 3 metres) and therefore, the on-field call will be upheld.

Vaishnavi Sharma To Imesha Dulani
Slower through the air, on the shorter side, around off, Imesha Dulani waits back and jabs it towards mid-wicket for a single.
A halt in the proceedings. It seems like Richa Ghosh needs some assistance from the physio as she seems to be hurt on the left wrist. The Lankan batters take this opportunity to rehydrate as well and thankfully, Richa looks good to continue after the physio applies a bit of the magic spray.

FOUR! Absolutely hammered! What was turning out be a quiet over from India's perspective is somewhat spoiled by a boundary on the last ball. A half-tracker, well wide on off, Perera needs no second invitation as she gets on top of it and slaps it through point for a boundary.

Sneh Rana To Imesha Dulani
A huge appeal for LBW and that looked pretty plumb but the umpire turns it down. Harmanpreet Kaur has a chat with the bowler and the keeper and the Indian camp feels like there was some bat involved and opts against the review. The replays suggest that the ball flicked both pads and probably this should have been reviewed. Coming to the delivery, it was flighted up on middle and leg, Imesha Dulani went for the sweep again and missed, getting hit on the pads. The Ball Tracking comes as umpire's call with the ball clipping the leg stump, so the decision would have been upheld even if India had reviewed it.

OUT! CAUGHT! Excellent catch from Deepti Sharma and Chamari Athapaththu cannot believe her luck. Just before this ball, Deepti went from gully to extra cover and that's exactly where the ball went. Arundhati Reddy goes fuller now and stays wide outside off. Athapaththu laces the cover drive but hits it slightly above the ground. Sharma puts in a full-stretch dive to her right and snaffles it with both hands.
