New Delhi: India will take on England in the final of the Women’s World Cup on Sunday. All eyes will be on Mithali Raj’s team as the Indians are searching for their first-ever World Cup crown. England on the other hand are multiple winners of the crown, having scooped it three times.
There has been a lot said and written about on who will be the favourites for this big game. But our take is that it is difficult to pick one team.
India have beaten England earlier in the tournament and have also registered a special win against the mighty Australians in the semi-finals.
England on the other hand have an air of confidence due to several reasons. Being the hosts, they know the conditions at the back of their hand.
They have also got a very positive body language about them, having been there and done that which we know when we look at their past performances in the tournament – this is their seventh final.
And they also topped the league stage of the competition.

The big final will be played on July 23 2017, Sunday. The match will begin at the usual timing of 3 pm IST.
