The match officials though did not heed to the protests from Harmanpreet Kaur. The final decision went in favor of the Australian skipper who was trying to shield herself. There was more to come though as the drama did not end.

Aussie veteran Alyssa Healy tried to sweep Harmanpreet Kaur attempted a sweep and missed the line of the ball. The Indian team went up for an appeal in unison and the umpire deemed it fit to give it out. It was a timely wicket for the Indians who were getting frustrated with Healy’s dour defense to deny the Indians a wicket.
