The Women’s T20 World Cup final on Sunday saw Australia Women wicketkeeper-batswoman Alyssa Healy smash the Indian bowlers to all parts of the ground in a breezy half-century. The opener smashed a 39-ball 75 to propel the hosts to a daunting 184/4, with her husband and Australian men's cricketer Mitchell Starc watching over from the VIP stands. India tennis star Sania Mirza believes that had Mitchell Starc been from India, he would have been termed a ‘Joru ka Ghulaam.’

Australia Women qualified for the Women’s T20 World Cup final after beating South Africa Women in a rain-interrupted semi-final. With the final set to be played at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, Mitchell Starc watched the match from the VIP box, as his wife Alyssa Healy put up a Player-of-the-Match performance, much like Ricky Ponting’s blitzkrieg in the 2003 50-over World Cup final. Starc, who was part of the Australian men’s cricket team on tour to South Africa, took a break from the final ODI to watch wife Alyssa Healy play in front of her home crowd.
