Wiping tears of joy after reaching the final of the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup by defeating Australia by five wickets thanks to Jemimah Rodrigues’ unbeaten century of 127 runs, Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur said that she is proud of this team and there are no words to express it.
Harmanpreet said after the match, “We were discussing that whatever the situation, we have to stand firm for the team. We have such players in the team who can win the match under any circumstances. ,
Praising Rodriguez, he said, “She is a player who always wants to do better for the team.” She always wants to take responsibility. We had a good partnership on the pitch, a lot of credit goes to him who maintained his composure and kept batting for the team. ,
Harmanpreet said about the final, “Today we played well, I am happy with the result. We have already started talking about the next match. Playing the World Cup on home soil is special. There is one more match and we will give our best. ,
‘Player of the match’ Rodrigues said, “Credit to ‘Jesus’ for this innings.” This would not have been possible without them. I am thankful to my parents. I came to know only five minutes in advance that I was going to bat at number three. Last time I could not make it to the World Cup but this time I got a chance. ,
When Rodrigues did not celebrate even after scoring a century, she said, “It was not about me, I wanted to win this match for India.” They had lost many important matches earlier also, so they wanted to win this one and reach the finals. Today it was not about my half-century or century but about making India win. ,
Australian captain Alyssa Healy said, “It was a good match.” Couldn’t do well in batting, couldn’t bowl well. Missed many opportunities on the field. In the end we lost.
