In India’s final Group A match of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 at Lord’s, Deepti Sharma sets a record in women’s international cricket even as Australia’s Women beat India’s Women by six wickets. Sharma becomes the all-time leading wicket-taker in women’s international matches, surpassing Jhulan Goswami’s previous mark. The milestone arrives when she dismisses Australia batter Beth Mooney during India’s must-win clash. Earlier in the match, India posts 170/4, led by captain Harmanpreet Kaur’s 56 off 27 balls. Kaur’s innings includes three consecutive sixes in the final over, helping India reach a competitive total. Australia then successfully pursues the target, eliminating India from the tournament following the group match outcome. While India exits the competition, Sharma’s achievement stands out as a career-defining statistical milestone across women’s international cricket.
