Richa Ghosh Slams Joint-Fastest Fifty In Women's T20Is Against West Indies

ABP News  

By smashing an 18-ball half-century in the series decider against the West Indies, India wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh equalled the record for joint-fastest fifty in the history of women’s T20Is. Richa came out to bat after Smriti fell for 77, her third straight fifty of the series and 30th half-century overall in T20Is, which took her past Suzie Bates’ record of 29 fifties in the format. From there, Richa was severe on Deandra, Aaliyah, and Hayley Matthews, before flicking Aaliyah for a six over deep mid-wicket to get a sensational half-century in just 18 balls, equalling the record for fastest T20I half-century alongside New Zealand’s Sophie Devine and Australia’s Phoebe Litchfield. Though Richa’s carnage, coming at a strike-rate of 257.14, ended a ball before India’s innings got over, she ensured India had a strong finish to end up at 217/4 and invite West Indies to break their own record for the highest chase in women's T20Is.
