Harmanpreet's captaincy: 211 matches, one WC and a debate that never went away

From a stand-in captain in 2012 to India's first women's ODI World Cup-winning skipper, Harmanpreet Kaur's 14-year captaincy produced 211 matches, 126 wins and eight title or gold-medal finishes. It also brought repeated questions over her leadership, batting and record against Australia. Her resignation closes a captaincy era that delivered the trophy India had waited for, while leaving the T20 World Cup and a long-running succession debate finally resolved.
