The Indian wicketkeeper got help during this period. When Richa was on 10 facing 2 balls, the West Indies fielder dropped her catch. After that, the West Indies team had to pay a heavy price for that catch. Ghosh equaled the all-time record by hitting a six over midwicket in the last over of the innings. Although she could have broken this record, the 17th ball did not connect with her bat.

During this period, Ghosh's strike rate was 257.14, which is the highest for an Indian woman in a T20 International innings (minimum 50 runs) and after Sophie Devine (70 runs on 22 balls) and Phoebe Lichfield (52* runs on 19 balls). Third is best. Ghosh's half-century off 18 balls equaled the record set by Devine and Lichfield. India's previous best performance was an effort by Mandhana off 23 balls.
