Lord’s Triumph Marks Milestone for Indian Women’s Test Cricket, Says Captain

Harmanpreet Kaur, captain of the Indian women’s Test side, described the Lord’s victory as a "special chapter" in the nation’s cricket story. The 270‑run win over England not only broke new ground for women’s cricket at the venue but also underscored the depth of talent in the squad.

Kaur emphasized that the top‑order’s disciplined batting was the cornerstone of the success, allowing the middle and lower order to play freely. She added that the team’s resilience, even with limited red‑ball experience, showcases the growing strength of women’s Test cricket in India.

Looking ahead, Kaur hopes the board will schedule additional Tests, noting that such high‑profile matches fuel enthusiasm and provide crucial development opportunities for the players.
