🏏ICC Women's T20I WC 2024: Group A: M 19- PakW vs NZW, Page 70🏏 - Page 39

Kavisha and Anushka showed a bit of spark during their stand but India never looked threatened tonight. Again Arundhati Reddy was amongst the wickets, with a three-fer and the leggie Asha Sobhana chipped in with a three-fer too. All five bowlers used finished with wickets to their names. After a heavy loss and a scratchy win, India turned up tonight and they have knocked out Sri Lanka too with this win.

PLAYER OF THE MATCH

Harmanpreet Kaur

Well deserved award.

Harmanpreet Kaur | Player of the Match: We just wanted to go with the momentum. Smriti and Shafali gave us a very good start. We discussed that, we didn’t want to throw our wickets away. That’s exactly what the openers did and gave us that platform. Jemi and I just wanted to get 7-8 runs an over, and we just went with the flow. It was one of those days where I was in my zone, I was thinking positively and hitting anything that was in my zone. These wickets aren’t very true for batting. You have to keep rotating strike and only when the ball is in the zone can you swing your bat. We were there today for the team, we trusted ourselves and were rotating strike, and that’s what worked for us.
