Indians are celebrating after the country's women cricketers won the inaugural Twenty20 World Cup for the blind.
India defeated Nepal by seven wickets in the final played in Sri Lankan capital Colombo on Sunday.
The victory, which came weeks after India won its first Women's One-Day International World Cup, is expected to provide a fillip to sportspersons with disabilities in the country.
The tournament featured six teams - India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Australia and the US - in a single round-robin.
Blind cricket uses a plastic ball with metal bearings that jingle, and players are grouped by sight: B1 (fully blind), B2 and B3. Teams must field a mix of all three. The ball is bowled underarm along the ground. B1 batters use runners for safety, and each run they score counts as two.
