The ICC women’s cricket World Cup will kick off on Friday in Guwahati, where India will take on Sri Lanka.
Former Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, in his column for the ICC, wrote that this could be an important moment in the history of women’s cricket in India, and also recalled his memories when he was inspired by India’s 1983 World Cup and the knocks played during the campaign.
“That win told an entire generation of young Indians that dreams need not be constrained by boundaries,” Tendulkar wrote.
“The stories from that campaign, like Kapil paaji’s legendary 175 against Zimbabwe – a knock that might not have been televised but is immortalized, are etched in our memory as folklore.”
