Apart from Kohli, former Indian cricketers like Virender Sehwag and VVS Laxman congratulated women's team for making it to the summit clash.
India remained unbeaten in the group stage and won all four matches. The Women in Blue started the T20 World Cup campaign on a thumping note by defeating defending champions and tournament favourites Australia in the opening match. After that, India defeated Bangladesh, New Zealand and Sri Lanka as well. India could either face South Africa or Australia in the finals as the two teams are scheduled to face-off in the second semis. In case, that is washed-out as well, South Africa will meet India in the final then.
