The Indian women’s team has won the Women’s ODI World Cup. The team became champions for the first time in this 52-year-old tournament. On Sunday, in the final match played in Mumbai, India women defeated South Africa by 52 runs. Just as India is a country full of diversity, similarly, the Indian women’s cricketers who became World Champions also come from different backgrounds. Some parents made their daughter a cricketer by working as daily wage labourers, while others’ parents were in government jobs. Some fathers run jewellery shops, while others’ family members have been selling vegetables. 16 photos of World Champions’ performance in the tournament and their family background
