335. ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 Notebook 3: Fine Margins And Masterclasses

Hi there! Welcome to Episode 335 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. We unpack a dramatic stretch of World Cup action — from India’s nail-biting loss to South Africa to Australia’s record-breaking chase in Visakhapatnam. We start with that rollercoaster in Vizag — Richa Ghosh’s lone stand, Nadine de Klerk’s composure under fire, and where exactly India let it slip. Then, we head to Guwahati, where New Zealand found their spark after a rocky start, with Sophie Devine and Brooke Halliday steering a stunning turnaround against Bangladesh. In Colombo, Nat Sciver-Brunt reminded everyone why she’s world-class with a century built on control and clarity, while Sophie Ecclestone spun a web around Sri Lanka. And then in Vizag, we relive Alyssa Healy’s breathtaking 142 — a statement knock that redefined Australia’s chase blueprint and exposed India’s inconsistency under pressure and lastly look at South Africa pulling off a heist against Bangladesh chasing down a challenging total with 3 wickets to spare! Fine margins, clutch moments, and statement performances — this is the story of a World Cup week that had it all. Thank you so much for tuning in to today’s episode and for your incredible support.
