INDW vs AUSW T20 World Cup 2023: Harmanpreet Kaur’s run-out during the Women’s T20 World Cup semi-final match against Australia was a pivotal moment in the game. The Indian captain, feeling a mix of emotions, knew it could be the deciding factor. Despite her frustration, Harmanpreet showed maturity by encouraging incoming batter Deepti Sharma, while storming off after slamming her bat when climbing the dressing room stairs.
An ocean of emotions
Before her dismissal, India was cruising towards the target of 173, needing only 41 runs off 33 balls with six wickets in hand. However, Harmanpreet’s run-out was followed by Richa Ghosh’s dismissal in the next over, which only yielded one run. India then struggled to score runs and lost their nerve, eventually losing to Australia by five runs. Harmanpreet, who had battled fever and health issues to be fit for the match, did not let tears flow at the post-match presentation. However, when former India captain Anjum Chopra walked towards her and hugged her, Harmanpreet could not hold back her emotions. Anjum’s gesture lessened Harmanpreet’s sorrow as she had played a great innings with the bat but could not lead her team through.
