India stormed into the final after a stunning victory over seven-time champions Australia. Jemimah Rodrigues led the charge with a match-winning unbeaten 127, earning the Player of the Match award. South Africa, on the other hand, scripted history by beating England to secure their maiden World Cup final berth.
This will be the first-ever Women’s ODI World Cup final without either Australia or England – guaranteeing a new world champion. For India, it marks their third appearance in the final, while South Africa will feature in the summit clash for the first time.
