It’s really not satisfying watching Sri Lanka get pummelled by India. It’s like watching watership down or children’s hour or something. Hours of sad feels.

THE SEXISM GETTING A NOTCH DOWN IN SPORTS

INDIA VS ENGLAND WOMEN’S CRICKET WORLD CUP FINAL 2017

Let me tell you I’m a huge fan of cricket and after years of watching the gentleman’s game I was excited to see both the countries—England whose national game is cricket and India who loves cricket—setting their eyes on this match. 

India lost and I’m definitely a bit sad about it but I’m still happy that after years of watching only males taking over games like cricket, football , basketball or baseball, there’s finally a time where people are cheering for the girls too! 

Maybe it took a long time for this change but it’s here at last. I can sense the sports industry becoming feminist and not the misunderstood meaning of feminism but the actual one where guys will be cheering for the female players as much as the girls do for male players.

ENGLAND WOMEN ARE THE WORLD CHAMPIONS! They win the final against India that turned out to be a nail-biting contest but nerves got the better of chasing team.

What a brilliant final that was! Nervy until the very end!

Well done England, and commiserations to India, who still played a great tournament!

Winning a world cup for England at Lords, now that is magical!
