India’s run at the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 reached new heights on October 30 as they stunned Australia in a record-breaking semifinal at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. Chasing a monumental 340, India held their nerve to script the highest-ever successful run chase in Women’s ODI history and storm into the final.
Jemimah Rodrigues stood tall with a sublime unbeaten 127, guiding India home with composure and flair. Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur’s 89 added vital momentum as the hosts crossed the line with nine balls to spare, sending the packed stadium into raptures.
The result not only sealed India’s passage to the November 2 final but also ended Australia’s incredible unbeaten streak in World Cup matches that had stretched 15 games. For a side that had dominated the tournament for years, this loss marked the end of an era — and the rise of a new challenger.
South Africa carved their own piece of history a day earlier in Guwahati. Laura Wolvaardt’s breathtaking 169 powered the Proteas to a massive 319 for 7 against England, setting up a crushing 125-run victory. That performance — commanding and fearless — underlined South Africa’s hunger for their first world title.
The final at the DY Patil Stadium now promises to be a contest of equals: India, fueled by home passion and self-belief, against a South African side brimming with form and intent under Wolvaardt’s captaincy. For the first time in Women’s World Cup history, the title clash will not feature Australia or England — a fitting symbol of how far the women’s game has evolved.
Cricket fans around the world can expect more than just a final. They can expect a celebration — of new heroes, fearless chases, and a fresh chapter in women’s cricket history.
