In Jio Cinema 27L people are watching the Women’s match and in Disney plus Hotstar 16L people are watching the Men’s match. When you say people dont watch women’s matches please read this tweet again. There is place for every sport. Ap try toh karo, broadcast toh karo!
Mithali being in Gujarat Giants was enough for me to call Gujarat Giants my team and now Rachel Haynes..Ek hi toh Dil hai aur kitni bar jitoge?

@M_Raj03
‘s Indian teammates. Got the first 83 in a blink had to think hard to get the next 4 and the last one took a lot of time but finally got it.
I grew up listening to d stories of this elegant batter & have been lucky to see her score bucket full of runs.D way u hv handled pressure hs always inspired me.All the best champ
@M_Raj03
.May your WC dreams come true!Also,m not watching ur last match will be an emotional hell!
Everytime I watch this video I tear up! I am already dreading the day Rafa retires! I am yet to get over

@RachaelHaynes
retired, then

, then
@rogerfederer
..ugh literally have no tears left.
If
@BCCIWomen
is touring.
@englandcricket
and I say if coz there is no announcement from our end (I haven’t seen it atleast), then a test match should be included in the series! I hope we make WTests a regular feature in every tour!
@prasannalara
That’s because we Indians like to criticise Indian players. Our batters can’t play swing (criticise)..England batters can’t play spin (criticise the pitches not the players)..Pujara plays slow (criticise)..Williamson plays slow (too busy in criticising our own bowlers!)
Honestly this knock should be right at the top when it comes to important knocks in knockout games! She has played such beautiful match winning knocks and that too under pressure! Take a bow champ
@M_Raj03

It's the day of
#91NotOut
! I really feel this is one of the most underrated knocks of the knockouts yet one of the most important ones ever played for🇮🇳 or cricket in general. It deserves much more recognition what it gets.
Here's the only glimpse I came across of that knock.❤
As someone who aspired to become a pace bowler like

All celebrities speak abt the spirit of not giving up or the art of not giving up or put up posts saying one shouldn’t give up. Then why is it that

is trolled for doing
@BiggBoss
thrice? Isn’t it good that she is not giving up? Hypocrites much!
#ShamitaShetty
I will take days,months & weeks to process not seeing her in the Indian jersey. Seeing all the tweets, I have been wondering only if people were even half good to her when she was playing! Why do people need to retire or die for others to acknowledge their contributions?

An interesting observation on
@M_Raj03
‘s Strike Rate.
From 0-20 runs, Mithali Raj scores at a SR of around 50-60, from 21-30 runs, her SR increases to something around 80 and once she crosses 50, her SR shoots upto 100.
#INDWvSAW
The commentators criticise her..social media criticises her..former players criticise her..

made some very interesting points during the 100% cricket webinar ..if you haven’t watched the seminar give this article a read -
Keep your head up!You’ve been a fighter your whole life, and you always will be. Yesterday wasn’t your day, but ups and downs are part of sport and life. Your persistence is unwavering. One bout doesn’t define a boxer. You’ll come back stronger.

Top five women ODI bats, ordered by batting average in winning games, and, for comparison, their averages in losing matches (min 2000 runs in wins):
MRaj (72.52, 32.85)
STaylor (WI) (65.85, 26.85)
SBates (63.78, 27.06)

EPerry (60.34, 34.74)
Snapped a selfie with Indian shooters Ramita Jindal and Arjun Babuta. Arjun said he needs more time to digest his loss, while Ramita is optimistic about her next Olympics. It’s crucial to celebrate every athlete, medal or not, for their dedication.

In 2018, I was the gfx operator in the T20 WWC in West Indies. This was on the way back from the tournament. Australia had won the trophy and I wanted a pic with my favourites Perry and Lanning but dint get the opportunity throughout the tournament. Contd.
Anyone who knows me knows how passionate I am about sports in general and women’s cricket tops the chart in that regard. I realised on the

BCCI needs to change some of the comms for the next WPL please. I generally watch the match either on mute or listen to English comms, I would switch to Hindi to listen to

Lisa Sthalekar was a world class spinner. So ya she is a ‘genuine spinner’. Why does she not count here? Apart from being a world class spinner, she is damn good commentator.
@wmakarand
Not one genuine spinner in the commentary panel that is being played in India. How will people get educated on spin bowling. Does it mean only batsmen and some colour commentators know the game. Pathetic mix
How many actors have come on

have never lost a Test match against England in England?

The commentary this WPL has been pretty average or lower..basic mistakes..the comms are making mistakes about capped players..God save the uncapped ones! The concept of “homework” is gone or what?

In the 4th ODI vs SAW, INDW scored 188 in 49.3 overs.
@M_Raj03
scored 79 off 104 balls, others combined got 93 Runs off 192 Balls excluding extras. Mithali’s SR of 75.96 is 1.5 times more than the others. If she is still being criticized for her SR then slow claps for those ppl!
Indian Women's cricketers with 10 or more ODI fifty-plus scores against a team:
20 - Mithali Raj v ENG
11 - Mithali Raj v SL
10 - Mithali Raj v NZ

This is the game awareness Healy had spoken about! Wong thought they will try to run the non striker out and was looking back which slowed her and Deepti Sharma showing what game awareness can do! Wong could have taken it above 130 but Deepti Sharma..oh how good is she!
Mathias Boe has an identity. He was a brilliant player, silver medalist in Men’s doubles at London Olympics & has many accolades to his name. His identity isnt “Taapsee Pannu’s husband”. As a coach, he has done superb work with Sat-Chi. Lets do better sports reporting please.
One of the best strategists of the game in the comm box tomorrow..after a long long time I am going to watch a match without muting the commentary! Can’t wait

What Mithali Raj has done for Indian Women’s cricket team is this - when nobody knew about Women’s cricket,when nobody paid even a penny for playing cricket,when nobody appreciates the knocks,the wins,this woman quietly put her head down and kept batting for India!
Heartbroken by Sheetal Devi’s loss. She was the one athlete I was backing to win. But that’s how pressure works. She had three 8s, and Zuniga had two—that made the difference. That said, this loss doesn’t take anything away from her. At just 17, she’ll come back stronger.
