We have witnessed various performances by bowlers on the cricket field. The sight of pace and swing blunting batsmen has often been shocking. Now in women’s cricket, such a smashing ball is gaining attention.
Indian bowler Shikha Pandey is the star of this. Shikha’s magic ball was born during the second Twenty20 match against the Australian women’s team.
The Australian women chased down India’s 119-run target. Shikha struck out Alyssa Healy in the second ball. The ball that Shikha threw to take Healy’s wicket is now catching the attention of the cricketing world.

Healy did not smell any danger when the ball, which reached the 111km / h speed of the 32-year-old Shikha, was pitched outside the off stump in the middle of the pitch. But the ball swung abruptly and landed on top of Healy’s off stump.
All of Healy’s calculations were wrong.
