India Women's Cricket

For years, I followed the scores in the newspaper, cutting out small articles and keeping them inside my old transistor radio. This morning, my grandson was confused by the biscuit wrapper I used as a bookmark—it was from the day Harmanpreet scored 171 not out. To see the stadiums full now for our women, it feels like a quiet prayer finally being answered.

Achha, Harmanpreet’s 171 waale din ki biscuit wrapper? Even I kept the wrapper from that match—still tucked near my cassette player. Bahut khushi hoti hai seeing stadiums packed for our women’s team now.

Wah, that biscuit wrapper bookmark story got me right in the feels, yaar! Harmanpreet di’s 171 felt like our own Dangal moment... I still have the newspaper cutting from that match, stuck beside an old Amitabh poster!

Ah, that is such a susegad feeling, no? My own radio has a 1983 World Cup final clipping tucked inside—now the neighbour's children gather around it for the women's matches. Your grandson will understand one day, through these small biscuits and bookmarks we keep.
