Athletic Ellyse Perry thinks on her feet for Australia in 2010 final against New Zealand
With the final of the tournament's second edition of the tournament coming down to the final over, it was star all-rounder Ellyse Perry who shone as Australia claimed their first title.
Dangerous New Zealand batter Sophie Devine was imposing at the other end, though needed to find the boundary from the final ball of the match to guide the Kiwis to victory.
Perry had other ideas. The Australian star flung her boot out to slow down Devine's drive, and her efforts sent her teammates into raptures, as the Aussies defended their small total to claim tournament honours.
Alyssa Healy feasts on India in 2020 final
Alyssa Healy took on Shikha Pandey, and the Australia opener launched the ball into the crowd in excess of 85,000 people for three consecutive sixes in the 2020 final at the MCG.
The final six of the three - a massive hit over cover - was the pick of the bunch and helped Healy compile a quickfire 75 from just 39 deliveries as Australia clinched a record fifth Women's T20 World Cup title.
Katherine Sciver-Brunt's caught and bowled
Under pressure in the inaugural Women's T20 World Cup Final and on home soil, it was Katherine Sciver-Brunt who turned the tide against New Zealand.
England skipper Charlotte Edwards kept the right-armer in the attack for her final over at Lord's, having bowled three consecutive overs already, and the Kiwis quickly went from three-down to five-down as Sciver-Brunt claimed two wickets while delivering the second maiden of her spell.
This caught and bowled effort to claim the big wicket of Rachel Priest was the best of Sciver-Brunt's final haul of 3/6 and it was no surprise that the fast bowler was named Player of the Match for her efforts.
Britney Cooper finishes the job to send West Indies into raptures in 2016
The concurrent Men's and Women's T20 World Cup 2016 proved a huge success for the West Indies, with the Women claiming their first T20 World Cup crown at Eden Gardens.
Hayley Matthews and Stafanie Taylor took the sting out of the chase at the top of the order, though Cooper was invaluable to the effort of chasing down the target of 149, hitting the winning runs on the third delivery of the final over.
It was an enviable career high for Cooper and her teammates, who stormed onto the field to celebrate.
Poonam Yadav magic deceives Ellyse Perry in 2020
Ellyse Perry once again posed a huge threat to India at the 2020 edition of the tournament, though it was the leg-spin of Poonam Yadav that undid the star Australian all-rounder to set up a famous victory.
Perry danced down the pitch in an attempt to get to the pitch of Yadav's delivery, but was fooled by Yadav's wrong-un that dipped and slid between bat and pad to crash into leg stump.
Yadav's spell helped India make a perfect start to the seventh edition of the Women's T20 World Cup and the right-armer was deservedly named Player of the Match for her efforts.
Harmanpreet Kaur run out
It was a split-second moment that sent shockwaves through the cricket world in 2023.
With India seemingly on top in their T20 World Cup semi-final meeting with Australia, needing 41 from 33 deliveries and with six wickets in hand, Harmanpreet Kaur ran what looked like an innocuous two.
Alyssa Healy whipped the bails off after receiving a throw from the deep, and appealed for a runout, having observed Harmanpreet's bat had lodged in the turf upon the batter making her ground.
Third umpire replays showed Harmanpreet short of her ground and was given out in the match-swinging moment.
Ayabonga Khaka's triple strike
A quiet achiever in an emerging South Africa bowling attack, Ayabonga Khaka enjoyed a home headline moment, taking three wickets in a semi-final-shifting over against England.
Needing 28 from the final 18 deliveries in the chase, Amy Jones was the first to face Khaka's 18th over barrage, spooning a catch to cover to depart for two. Bosch was called into action again to dismiss Sophie Ecclestone, before Katherine Sciver-Brunt was trapped in front lbw for the third scalp.
England crumbled from 137/4 to 140/7, as Khaka's 4/29 helped close out a six-run win.
Schutt claims key Wolvaardt wicket in 2023 Final
Hosts South Africa pressed on for a first Women's T20 World Cup title, with key batter Laura Wolvaardt passing the half-century mark early in a chase of 157.
As the right-hander was about to make a final charge, she was curtailed by Megan Schutt, returning at the death to stop the batter in her tracks.
Wolvaardt was struck on the back pad and adjudged lbw, with the side still needing 48 from 21 balls.
The blow took the wind out of the hosts' sails, as Australia cruised to a sixth T20 World Cup title.
