But here’s the twist: the last 3 editions tell a story of vulnerability, not dominance. They’ve lost twice; to Bangladesh in 2018 and Sri Lanka in 2024; revealing cracks in a seemingly unstoppable legacy. Now, with Shafali Verma smashing 64 off 40 and Deepti Sharma spinning magic with 3/26 in the semis, the team looks strong. Yet, the real test lies ahead. Can they avoid relying on one superstar? Can they build partnerships on tricky pitches? Harmanpreet Kaur knows the pressure. She’s been through it all; from defending 81 in 2012 to scoring half her team’s runs in a loss. This isn’t just about winning a trophy. It’s about proving they’ve learned from past failures. Sunday’s final in Dubai won’t be easy, no matter who they face; Sri Lanka or Pakistan. The script is set. History is waiting. Will they rewrite it; or repeat it?
