Meanwhile the PM recalled Harleen Deol’s brilliant catch at the boundary, way back in 2021, which he had highlighted on social media. As far as skipper Harmanpreet is concerned, she asked the PM about his ability to stay in the present. The PM too, curiously, asked her about keeping the match-winning ball with her.
The PM also spoke to the girls about the Fit India movement, and also encouraged them to promote it. He asked the players to visit schools to inspire young students. Coming to the November 2 final between India and South Africa, hosts were put in to bat by visiting skipper Laura Wolvaardt.
Shafali Verma came with an innings of a lifetime and scored a quickfire 87 to take India to 298. Deepti Sharma also contributed with a valuable 58. Eventually, largely due to all round efforts of these two very players, India beat South Africa by a massive 52 runs to win their maiden World Cup.
