NAVI MUMBAI: It was a night where Indian women's cricket turned another corner.
An unprecedented, packed house of 45,238 cheering fans at the DY Patil Stadium — a new record for the highest attendance in a women's cricket match in the country — was treated to a thriller for the ages on Sunday night as a spirited India pipped Australia by 4 runs in an absolute nerve-wracker via the Super Over to tie the T20I series 1-1. If the BCCI's ambitious inaugural Women's IPL in March needed an advert, the second T20I of this series was a perfect one. The enormity of India's win can be gauged by the fact that it was the mighty Aussies' first defeat in T20Is this year.
