That unplayable delivery didn’t just win the game -- now, in 2024, it has been crowned the FanCraze Greatest Moment in Women’s T20 World Cup history.
Poonam Yadav’s Magic: WatchIn that face off, Perry charged down the pitch, trying to meet Yadav’s delivery, but was deceived by a cunning wrong-un that dipped and snuck between bat and pad, crashing into leg stump.
Thereafter the brilliant spell by Yadav set the tone for India's perfect start to the seventh edition of the Women's T20 World Cup as she won Player of the Match award for her beautiful spells.
Who Is Anirudh Chaudhry? The Ex-BCCI Treasurer Contesting Haryana Elections And Backed By Virender Sehwag Yadav isn’t the only Indian in the mix, two more moments have made the list, but they don’t bring much joy. Harmanpreet Kaur’s heartbreaking run out and India’s tough 2020 final, where Alyssa Healy smashed Shikha Pandey for three consecutive sixes in front of 85,000 at the MCG.
Healy’s blistering 75 off 39 balls helped Australia secure their record fifth Women’s T20 World Cup title.
Kaur's unusual run out is also part of the mix, a split-second moment that shocked the cricket world in 2023.
With India in control during their T20 World Cup semi-final against Australia, needing 41 from 33 deliveries with six wickets in hand, Kaur appeared to be cruising as she ran a seemingly routine two.
But Healy, spotting an opportunity, whipped the bails off after receiving a throw from the deep. Kaur’s bat had gotten stuck in the turf just as she made her ground.
Third umpire replays confirmed she was shortrbet, leading to a game-changing dismissal.
