Indian spin quartet of Shree Charani, Prema Rawat, Shafali Verma and Deepti Sharma bowled out Pakistan for a meagre 55, its lowest ever total in women’s T20 International before notching up the runs in just 8.4 overs.
All the bowlers have been outstanding, stuck to the plans, read the pitch well and executed well,” Harmanpreet said at the post-match presentation ceremony. “It was a very important game for us. We talk about being ruthless, so very happy.
Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur couldn’t be happier that her team was clinical and ruthless in equal measure in its seven-wicket win over arch-rivals Pakistan in an inconsequential group league match of the Women’s Asia Cup T20 in Dubai on Saturday.
Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur couldn’t be happier that her team was clinical and ruthless in equal measure in its seven-wicket win over arch-rivals Pakistan in an inconsequential group league match of the Women’s Asia Cup.
On the day, Harmanpreet became the first cricketer in the world to captain his or her country in 150 T20 Internationals. In fact, Indian women have played 228 T20Is since inception and Harmanpreet has been a part of 205 games. Young spinner Charani, who had figures of 3 for 7 in 4 overs said that the bowling coach had told her to put more revs (revolutions) on the ball which in turn helps in imparting drift and turn. She is one short of 50 T20I wickets but is not ready to rest on the laurels.
Pakistan have a good bowling attack,” Harmanpreet said. “Just wanted to bowl to my strengths and according to the field. I just try to give more revs on the ball,” Charani said. I want to keep up my good work,” she said. It was a fresh wicket and we wanted to put maximum total as we had a good bowling side,” Sana said.
“It is very important to keep the standards high. I know what this team brings to the table. As far as losing three wickets is concerned, it can happen. “It is normal. “We had a collapse.
