“We didn’t play our best cricket. Going forward we know every game is important. We created chances but we were not able to avail those chances. They played better cricket than us, no doubt about that. Fielding we made some mistakes so that is a learning for us going forward. [Target] We have chased many times 160-170, we were expecting that on the board. While batting, we knew someone had to bat through but we kept losing wickets. [Pakistan next] We know this group is capable of better, this wasn’t the start we were expecting but we have to go from here.”
Harmanpreet Kaur(India’s Captain) said post-match
“Thought the platform at the top of the innings from Suzie Bates and Georgia Plimmer set the tone. Me and Melie [Kerr] were maybe a bit slow through overs 7-12 but we were able to go hard at the back end. It was tough work out there, pace off and trying to find the gaps. A bit scratchy to start with. Just really happy to contribute. We’ve worked so hard over the last six months, nice to see the team get their reward.”
