Women's Cricket World Cup 2022: Heartbreak at Hagley — India exit after a campaign of missed chances

Firstpost  

Women’s Cricket World Cup: The close matches and India’s ability to give the best teams a run for their money highlights what the team is capable of doing but the inconsistency in seizing the big moments and getting past the finish line also shows how far they have to go. A win or a washout was India’s best chance of qualifying to the semi-finals of the Women’s Cricket World Cup 2022. South Africa needed to complete their highest successful chase in women’s ODIs for a win on the night, and while they stumbled a few times and had their heart in the mouth when half-centurion Mignon du Preez was caught at long-on on the penultimate ball of the match which was later declared a no-ball, their professionalism and experience saw them through in a last-ball thriller which spelled elimination for India. Despite making a strong start to the World Cup with a 107-run win over Pakistan, India lost three of their first five matches and it was the Bangladesh victory that keep their semi-final chances alive till the last game against South Africa.
