The 13th edition of the tournament promises a new world champion, as India — competing in their third final — go head-to-head against first-time finalists South Africa. Both sides have been outstanding throughout the campaign, displaying grit, skill, and an unrelenting hunger for success. While India’s journey has been marked by consistency and collective strength, South Africa’s aggressive, fearless brand of cricket has captured global attention.
A win on Sunday could do more than just bring silverware — it could ignite a new era for women’s cricket in India. Such a triumph would inspire countless young girls to dream big, pick up the bat and ball, and follow in the footsteps of their heroes. Many believe the impact could even surpass the boost created by the launch of the Women’s Premier League three seasons ago.

For Harmanpreet Kaur and her team, the match represents more than a shot at glory — it’s a chance to showcase how far women’s cricket has come and how much further it can go.

As excitement builds across the country, India’s men’s cricketers have rallied behind the team with heartfelt messages of support.


Rishabh Pant shared a heartfelt message: "All the best to the Indian women's cricket team. I know you guys have been gone through a lot of ups and downs during the whole World Cup but you guys have come out with flying colours, all the time. It's a chance to create a history and let's win the World Cup at home. Let's get the World Cup home. All India is watching you, cheering you."
