Gautam Gambhir congratulates India Women Cricket Team: Team India is being praised all around after defeating Australia in the semi-finals of the Women's ODI World Cup 2025. Indian men's cricket team's head coach Gautam Gambhir, who is currently present in Australia. He has also commented on the record-breaking victory of the Indian women's team in Navi Mumbai. Have congratulated him. India defeated Australia by 5 wickets in the semi-finals of Women's ODI World Cup 2025. The star of India's victory was Jemimah Rodrigues, who played such a game that it reminded me of the 14-year-old story related to Gautam Gambhir in Mumbai.
Gautam Gambhir congratulated the women's team
After knowing what Gautam Gambhir said for the Indian women's cricket team in his congratulatory message on winning the semi-final, it is natural for you to remember that dialogue from the movie 'Manjhi - The Mountain Man', when Nawazuddin Siddiqui says - Unless you break, you will not leave. Now the question is whether Gambhir said this?
Gautam Gambhir, through his ax handle, congratulated the Indian women's team for its record-breaking win against Australia.
What he wrote is that - until the game is over, it is not considered over. Then he also wrote that the girls played brilliantly.It ain't over till its over! What a performance girls 🇮🇳 pic.twitter.com/Ox0Mg0hbEt

Indian team's record breaking chase
If we try to understand the meaning of Gautam Gambhir's congratulatory message, its meaning is similar to the dialogue of the film 'Manjhi - The Mountain Man'. In the semi-finals of Women's ODI World Cup 2025, India has booked the ticket for the final by defeating Australia by 5 wickets. This victory of Indian women is very special because they achieved it by chasing a total of 339 runs. Such a big total chase has never happened in the history of women's ODI cricket.
Jemima froze after landing at number 3
The Indian team could achieve this feat because Jemima remained grounded on the ground of Navi Mumbai.
She came to play at number 3 and then went out of the field only after giving the team a historic victory. Jemima remained unbeaten till the end and played an unmatched inning of 127 runs in 134 balls.Jemima in 2025, Gambhir in 2011
The special thing about this inning of Jemima was that through it she remembered a 14 year old story which was related to Gautam Gambhir. Jemimah's innings played in the semi-finals of the Women's ODI World Cup 2025 was exactly the same as that played by Gautam Gambhir in the 2011 Men's ODI World Cup.
Gambhir had then scored 97 runs. The big thing is that both Jemima and Gambhir played their innings at number 3. Both of them wrote the script of their innings on the grounds of Mumbai. The only difference was that Jemimah's match played at DY Patil was the semi-final of the Women's World Cup and Gambhir's match played at Wankhede was the final of the Men's ODI World Cup.Apart from similarity in innings and batting positions, there were many things similar in the jerseys of Jemima and Gambhir. India was written on the jerseys of both. Both their jerseys were stained with mud. And, these stains were good.
