By Kersi Meher-Homji Do you remember the old song: Why can’t women be more like men? It was more funny than chauvinistic. After India’s women cricketers performing magnificently in Australia in the Twenty20 World Cup and Indian male cricketers losing the first Test against New Zealand at Wellington, I feel like saying: Why can’t Indian […]
By Kersi Meher-Homji What a thriller, what a climax! I am referring to the Women’s World Cup match between India and New Zealand in Melbourne yesterday. The result was in doubt till the final ball. New Zealand batter Hayle Jensen had to hit the last ball of the match for a four to secure a […]
By Kersi Meher-Homji Indian readers, you saw it all – either live from the Showground in Sydney waving Indian tri-colours or on TV sitting comfortably on your sofa with family and friends, clapping every four hit by the Indian girls or every wicket taken by them.

By Kersi Meher-Homji Indian cricket is at its all-time high; be it in Tests, One-Day Internationals or Twenty20 Internationals (T20I). India’s women’s team under Harmanpreet Kaur is following the winning ways of men’s team under Virat Kohli. This week Kohli’s Invincibles are converting certain defeats into miracle victories. Just like in Hamilton against New Zealand […]
By Kersi Meher-Homji What a week of exciting tennis at the Australian Open in Melbourne and an exhilarating tied T20 cricket International at Hamilton! This was the third T20 match between India and New Zealand, India winning by six wickets in the first match at Auckland and by seven wickets in the second also at […]
By Kersi Meher-Homji What a change of fortunes in six days! Australia crushed India by 10 wickets in the first One Day International (ODI) in Mumbai last Tuesday. Everything looked rosy red for the Aussies with openers David Warner and skipper Aaron Finch hitting unbeaten centuries and dark and gloomy for Virat Kohli’s men. But […]
By Kersi Meher-Homji No, I won’t describe the one-sided and boring Sydney Test which ended last evening when Australia slaughtered New Zealanders by 279 runs and won the 3-Test series 3-0 by huge margins.
