Australia's Beth Mooney joked she feared being barred from entering the country after India's World Cup semi-final victory. Responding to Jemimah Rodrigues, who earlier worried Australia wouldn't let her cross the border for Women's Big Bash League, Mooney quipped during a Perth Scorchers-Sydney Sixers match: "I actually thought they weren't going to let us back in for losing. Thankfully, immigration let me in." India ended Australia's 16-match World Cup winning streak, chasing down 338 runs marking the highest chase in women's cricket history. Jemimah's unbeaten 127 and 167-run partnership with Harmanpreet Kaur (89) powered the victory. India subsequently won their first ICC title, defeating South Africa by 52 runs. (PC: NDTV Sports)
