The numbers speak of belief, progress, and pride! 185 million tuned in to the 2025 Women’s World Cup Final in India, matching the viewership of the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup Final.
Grateful to @ICC and @JayShah Sir for their leadership and efforts in taking the tournament to new heights.

I feel proud to say that this is just the beginning of an exciting new era for the sport. ❤️🏏

Life has a strange way of giving you chances to redeem yourself… sometimes, in ways you could never imagine.

Ben Stokes — once the man who conceded 4 sixes in the 2016 T20 World Cup final — returned three years later to script England’s greatest heist in 2019.

Deepti Sharma — who got out in the 2017 World Cup final when India needed 12 off 11 — found her redemption eight years later.

2025 World Cup Final: she became the only cricketer in history (men or women) to score 50+ and take 5 wickets in a World Cup final.

From heartbreak to history.
That’s redemption — the beautiful way cricket writes its scripts.

Kapil Dev: 1983
MS Dhoni: 2011
Harmanpreet Kaur: 2025

2017 Women’s World Cup Final, Lord’s. The greatest heartbreak in the history of Indian women’s cricket.

England made 228/7. India were cruising at 191/3 in 42.4 overs, just 38 needed off 44 balls, 7 wickets in hand. Then came the collapse. All out for 219, falling short by 9 runs. Harman herself scored a fighting 51, but it wasn’t enough. Yet, something irreversible happened that night. Indian women’s cricket changed forever.

India have rarely beaten Australia in white ball cricket over the last decade, but like in the 2025 semis, the girls came up clutch in the one match that mattered most, the 2017 semis. India hammered 281/4 in 42 overs, beating Australia by 36 runs. Harman led from the front with an outtttttrageous 171*(115) with 20 4s & 76s. It was the equivalent of Kapil Dev’s 175 vs Zimbabwe in 1983, not just for the score, but for the revolution it sparked. That knock made a generation of young girls believe they could dream in blue. I know a lot of young girls who took up cricket after that World Cup. She broke a barrier that night.

8 years later, she’s gone one better. As captain, leading India to their first ever World Cup title, herself contributing a crucial 89(88) in the semis vs Australia, marshalling her troops with poise & clarity, even pulling off the masterstroke of bowling Shafali in the final. Harman will be the face of belief for an entire generation of women. 8 years ago, women’s cricket took a new turn. 8 years later, it’ll never be the same again.

Captain. Leader. Legend. Harmanpreet Kaur! 👑🇮🇳

Champions of the World 💙🇮🇳

I’ve seen this dream for over two decades, to watch the Indian women lift that World Cup trophy.

Tonight, that dream finally came true.

From the heartbreak of 2005 to the fight of 2017, every tear, every sacrifice, every young girl who picked up a bat believing we belong here, it all led to this moment.

To the new champions of world cricket, you didn’t just win a trophy, you won every heart that ever beat for Indian women’s cricket. Jai Hind 🇮🇳

@TweetinderKaul @Ekam_Charvaka I guess the NRR should be in tact, now if only this pair can hang in there till the 40th over. With 70 odd to get and Richa Ghosh to come in, we could be in for something really special 😊

If Indians set foot in England and become English.

Then the English who set foot in India became Indian.

Therefore the English did not rule India.

There is no such thing as ‘colonization.’

We need more influencers like this
This should become mass movement

This influencer posted a video and asked people to join him in cleaning an ancient temple well, 60 people joined him in his effort.

This is how it turned out to be

Care to share and spread the word so that more people pick up such causes.

What a wonderful tribute to Shane Warne by Nasser Hussain.

This is how BCCI & Broadcasters take Indian Fans for granted, they consider Indian fans uneducated dumbs.

Sony Liv instantly uploads extended highlights for England games on Youtube for free but not highlight of India's game. Neither BCCI's does the same the way ECB do.

They want money for everything they give to Indian Cricket Fans.

Charlie Kirk would have been president. His friends knew it. His admirers knew it. And his enemies knew it.

This universal confidence in Charlie’s future began with his countless political accomplishments. At 18, he founded Turning Point USA, which went on to become the most important cultural organization on the American Right. By 22, he was addressing the Republican National Convention. Three years later, he founded Turning Point Action, which led the get-out-the-vote efforts that delivered the first Republican popular vote victory in twenty years. In his spare time, Charlie published five books, hosted a national talk show, married a lovely wife, and fathered two beautiful children. All of that by 31.

Charlie’s appearance inspired as much confidence as his accomplishments. At a towering six-foot-five slouching, he joked that he had descended from the Nephilim—the giant “fallen ones” of the Old Testament. He might have been born with such a nature, as are we all, but he was not content to remain so. Charlie loved his Savior. The zeal with which he debated politics paled in comparison to the excitement with which he discussed religion. And his religious life bore fruit.

Turning Point launched a Faith division to focus specifically on his followers’ souls. There too, Charlie’s enthusiasm for open debate set the tone, as he invited atheists and even Catholics to take part. But he didn’t need a specific religious conference to convey his faith. Charlie Kirk’s religion bore fruit in everything he did.

Discerning observers believed in Charlie Kirk, not chiefly for his accolades or his appearance, but for his manifest virtue. Charlie’s prudence, the principal virtue in politics, built a generational coalition that helped to transform the American government. His temperance distinguished him as one of the few on the Right to eschew whisky, cigars, and every other delight that might have distracted him from his purpose, for which he had so little time. His sense of justice produced clarity in moral vision and grace for his opponents. His fortitude impelled him to enter the public square without a hint of servile fear.

Charlie’s only fear was the holy sort—awe and wonder, the beginning of wisdom—and his clearest virtues were theological: faith, hope, and charity. We mourn his death, we take up his cause, and we entrust him, as he confidently entrusted himself, to God’s care.

[Robert F. Kennedy Jr @RobertKennedyJr]

Once again, a bullet has silenced the most eloquent truth teller of an era. My dear friend Charlie Kirk was our country's relentless and courageous crusader for free speech. We pray for Erika and the children. Charlie is already in paradise with the angels. We ask his prayers for our country.

This year I celebrated my 37th birthday. I feel proud to look at the song lyrics and know that NONE of them are true anymore. I've grown into a completely new man...one that i'm proud of. check this out...
