Visakhapatnam, October 9: India’s young wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh played a sensational innings of 94 runs off 77 balls, lifting the team from a tough situation against South Africa in the Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025.
Coming in at a time when India had lost six wickets cheaply, Richa displayed remarkable composure and shot selection. She completed her half-century in just 53 balls, hitting 11 fours and 4 sixes during her innings.
Her attacking yet controlled approach helped India recover from early setbacks and cross the 200-run mark, eventually setting a total of 251 runs.
