The young Bengal cricketer played a key role in India’s campaign, producing vital cameos throughout the tournament, including a blitz knock in the final.

Reflecting on her preparation before the World Cup, Ghosh said on JioStar, “Before the World Cup, I really focused on spending more time at the crease and building my innings. Whenever I got the chance to play, I concentrated on playing grounded shots and making sure I didn’t throw my wicket away. For me, it was all about keeping the scoreboard ticking with singles and holding up one end. That's what I worked on the most.”
