Hov: India Captain Harmanpreet Kaur He was lauded for his team’s excellent fielding effort after a series-like win against England in the second Women’s T20 International here on Sunday.
Defending 148, India were in trouble but the spinners bowled very well and backed the fielders to restrict the hosts to 140 for eight.
“I would give credit to our bowlers, their field placement was important, and the fielding was excellent,” a delighted Harmanpreet Said at the presentation ceremony after the match.
“We’ve always wanted to win, it’s not that easy to adapt to this bubble. Credits to our support staff for inspiring us.”
Harmanpreet said that each member of the side is aware of their role and that makes their job easier.
“Great effort by our entire team, everyone knows what to do and I am really happy with the way we played. We got off to a very good start but didn’t get runs for two-three overs. I had to go because We needed 150 across the board,” she said.
England captain heather knight The result was not what she would have liked to see after dominating the competition.
“We were very good for the bulk of the game, the way we pulled the ball back, it was excellent, showed character. Proud of the bowlers. But at 106-2 we shouldn’t have lost.”
“As a batting group we need to be better, it was a good wicket, need to take our singles and not put pressure on the lower order. Strong line-up, but not brutal. Should be better, shouldn’t be those Losing games.”
Knight said he would do everything possible to claim the series. The decider of the series will be played in Chelmsford on Wednesday.
“We can’t lose the series but we are looking forward to win it. Credit goes to India who took it to the last game, but we would like to win the series in Chelmsford,” he said.
Deepti Sharma, who played an unbeaten innings of 24 runs and also took a wicket, was adjudged the player of the match.
“When Harmanpreet and I were batting, we were talking about taking it deeper. As a bowling unit, the plan was to bowl dot balls and bowl partnerships, cutting boundaries. ”
