I've personally never seen a movie about women's cricket and I was happy to see this representation brought to Bollywood. I personally felt Taapsee portrayed Mithali Raj wonderfully in the movie, showing a calm, confident, and hard working character. I also enjoyed the tropes of friendship while also including the realities of the discrimination women face in sports. I felt Inayat Verma ( the little girl who plays a young Mithali) was the STAR of this movie. She was adorable and portrayed the character well. The first act was strong, but I felt the movie fell off in the second and third act. Overall the movie was motivating, and educated me about women's cricket but was not as entertaining and didn't flow as well as it could have.
