Another loss in a knock out game extended India's long wait for a world title. Despite losing the destructive Shafali Verma and star batter Smriti Mandhana cheaply, Jemimah and India skipper ensured boundaries. Lanning, who was dropped early in her innings, made India pay with an unbeaten 49 off 34 balls.

Is OTT going too far with gory content?

Ghosh also responds to those who have expressed concerns about the gory content, saying, “If a group of people do not want to watch certain kind of content, it does not mean we will stop making it. Do you want everyone to live in a perfect world and watch romantic dramas, where everyone lives happily ever after? To the people who are saying that a certain kind of content is affecting them, I would say do not watch it. “Pandemic altered the landscape of content consumption by giving us access to the shows from across the world. Anything done to attract audiences is wrong.” Hussain says he finds it disturbing to see how many of the OTT shows glorify violence...sometimes to the point of celebrating the dark side of humanity.
