Cricket’s force for good needs repair
The third and final stage of the 2026 women’s T20 World Cup generated some compelling cricket, not all of it flawless. One of the most noteworthy outcomes was Ireland’s first ever T20 World Cup victory. The team had almost achieved that historic landmark against New Zealand on June 19, failing to score 34 runs from the last 24 deliveries and 15 from the final over. They lost by four runs. Afterwards, the Irish players and coach talked about the need to play the top teams more often in order to gain experience in critical moments.

It looked like India might regret their decision to do without Sooryavanshi on Wednesday when they slumped to 6-2 after winning the toss. But they recovered to post a total of 189-7, compiled through steady rainfall. Heavier rain came during the interval, bringing the covers on to the ground, with the match called off at 1915 GMT.

On the field, in a repeat of a World Cup semifinal from earlier this year that India won, the tourists India lost Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan in the second
