ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod]

Anyway, the Indian team performed exceptionally well in England. After giving a good fight in the T20 series, they managed to whitewash England 3-0 in the ODI series. England opted to go with a younger squad this time, and it didn't worked well for them.  

The ending of the match was tormenting for the English side. They never expected the match to end this way. Charlotte Dean was recorded crying when she got out. I do not support what Deepti Sharma did but it is the new law and the out was therefore justified by the third umpire. I also feel that a couple of balls by Deepti would have eventually got the last batter.

As a result of the new cricket rule, Deepti's actions are correct and completely fair. I'm extremely impressed with Deepti Sharma's cunning presence of mind. It has run out. There is no doubt that Charlotte Dean began to move further away from the crease. In the end, this is a great win for Indian women. A big congratulations!

India women's team played superbly. I didn't think India's women's team would be able to bounce back in such a grand manner after the T20 series defeat. We have seen Indian dominance in all three matches. I didn't think the Indian players would be able to give a huge target of 334 in the second match. And despite being given a target of just 170 runs in the last match, the Indian team managed to win thanks to a brilliant performance by the bowlers. Beating a strong team like England by 3-0 is very honorable for the Indian players.

Basically I don't keep that much news about women's cricket. I understand that the Indian women's cricket team plays much better than other countries' teams. We can see proof of that against England. Women's cricket is progressing day by day which will bring glory to every country.

The Indian women's team performed brilliantly. I didn't think they could win that match. Beating England Women by 16 runs against a target of just 169 runs would be an example of a very good performance. India's women's team is now all in all. BCCI must be happy with their performance so far. From next year, the WIPL will be in full swing where the women are going to get a great domestic league just like the men.

Good to see Indian women beating England at there home and that too doing whitewash. It's clearly an indication that Indian women cricket is improving doing by day. In women cricket only Newzealand, Aus and England have proper teams but this performance clearly tells that India cricket is improving.

Running out non-striker when game on the line? Hell yeah!! Meltdown from the SKY commentators was amazing.

If it was the other gender there would have been a riot with the way India took the last wicket. I placed a bet for England for win the match considering it was a small total to chase and a win here for India means England would be whitewashed for the first time and yet they failed to win the match and i messed up my bet  .

It was a great game while it lasted and i thought England could win the match even with the last wicket standing  .

Riot or no riot, I absolutely loved it. Non-strikers should always stay in the crease, no matter what.

Sorry for your loss, upset on such a low chase is always hard to digest. Overall both teams showed enough character in the last match and believe it or not the last wicket run-out gave more exposure to Women's cricket, maybe because England and India were involved. Women's cricket could use some publicity.

I agree with in this case mostly batsmen are responsible for this, and they need to stay in crease because it's necessity of the time so what Deepti done is nothing wrong, and they completed their whitewash which is also amazing even many on social media crying it's foul play, but it's not important because now in record books India whitewashed England.

And again agreed about this hopefully this incident will give more publicity and talk around sports and cricket community which is positive for them game and this format specially with women's because this all is going good for them in the future.

Most of the time playing bets in these conditions never works because small targets create mess up and having chance of losing best is also high which already happen in men's cricket many times so now mostly I never go with this risk.

Deepti Sharma's runout of Charlie Dean certainly did not please England players and fans. As a result of the new law, it's just a run out. As it falls under the law of the ICC, it's nothing to be ashamed of. It is fair to win a match if it is under law. In the home game, England was whitewashed, so it was a big accomplishment for Indian women.

AFAIK this rule is in place for quite a while but bowlers usually don't use this method of run out. I saw that crucial run out and IMO batsmen was way out of his crease and deserves to be out. As far as it's allowed by ICC there is nothing to be ashamed of.

Before start of this series most predictions were against Indian teams as England is currently second best team in Women's cricket and have very good record against India but due to some changes which done by English selectors and with few players were also not available due to personal reasons they go ahead with few new players but this not works for them, and they have historical defeat against visitors where India bowled out them in all fields first batting then fielding and bowling it's surely one of the best performance from them in recent times and this is going to be good exposure for women's cricket in India because now many peoples will talk and try to watch these matches which is surely going to have positive impact and better development for the game.

As per ICC ranking, India is the 4th best and England is the 3rd best ODI team. Obviously, the English side was considered better than the Indian side but everything came to an end after this series win. This whitewash win by the Indian girls in England has already become viral in India and now it is a matter of time before we will see a lot of crowds whenever Indian girls will be playing in India.

This is a positive development for women cricket. That means more countries are taking women cricket seriously now. Previously only England, Australia and Newzealand have proper women teams. Countries like SA and Pakistan who have strong men team don't focus much on women cricket.

India women's team at the fourth position has managed to make a big change in their game. Like men, they want the ICC rankings to move their position higher. Indian fans believe that if they can keep the current performance consistently, they will be able to reach that position. At the last match they were able to whitewash England where they were quite cheered.

Indian women are now more fit and strong than before. There is consistency in their performance. India performed well in the ODI series against England. Despite losing the T20 series, India's women's team managed to win all the matches in the ODI series. And their performance was worth watching. Now the India women's team is at the fourth position in the world ranking. And if they are able to maintain the consistency of their performance, they will be able to occupy second place in the ranking even after the next 2/3 series.

If a team is ahead in any of the three formats, they try to gradually move forward in other formats as well. If the India women's team reached in the  third position in the ICC ranking, they won't be far behind in other formats as well. Moreover, what everyone is repeatedly mentioning is that their cricket has improved and will be at a higher level in the future.

By winning just a single series doesn't mean that Indian team is ahead of big three aka England, Newzland and Australia. There is lots of work still need to be done in women crikcet of India and other teams. AUS is still in my view the supreme leader of women cricket.

Absolutely right now suddenly too many expectations and hype for Indian women team is not good because still it's very long way to go if they want to stay at top with best shape England loses this series just because of having no experienced players so new players fail to give any impression specially their batting is badly down which was the major reason for their lost into this series Australia is well ahead in this list with New Zealand is also now well settled and as their Board increase their salaries it's also giving them good chance for having better performance in the future.

Sadly right now India is far behind in many ways with announced WIPL is also not going ahead even many are having feeling BCCI is world's richest board, but their ill minded administration is surely still 30 years behind from this time for bringing good changes for positive results.

Thank God after all we started talking and admiring  women cricket teams as well
I was watching Shahbash Mithu - a movie on indian cricket team and how they excelled despite of having  financial and cultural issues

Thank God after all we started talking and admiring  women cricket teams as well

I really doubt whether these Bollywood movies will give an accurate portrayal. For example, recently there was a movie named "Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl" released on Netflix. It starred some of the big names in Bollywood, such as Janhvi Kapoor and Pankaj Tripathi. The Indian Air Force complained against the movie, for it's inaccurate portrayal of various facts. Even in cricket sector, there was another movie named 1983. This one also came under heavy criticism for historically inaccurate scenes.

You are right. With the Indian women's team doing well in the ODI format, they will now look to do well in the T20 and Test formats as well. And I think the Indian women's team will improve very quickly in the Test and T20 rankings. The Indian team is quite strong now. They have been able to do well both in bowling and batting. The team has some great batsmen like Harmanpreet Kaur and Harleen Deol. Now the Indian women's team will fight for the top spot in the ranking.

The Indian women were always good as far as batting is concerned. What changed now is regarding pace bowling (similar to what happened with the men's team almost a decade ago). Renuka Singh Thakur has performed exceptionally in the recent months, and she wrecked the England batting lineup multiple times during the recent tour. The absence of Jhulan Goswami will not be felt, thanks to players such as Renuka. Not taking any credit away from players such as Harmanpreet and Smriti. They also played a major role in the series win against England.
