Women’s T20 Asia Cup: Our Bowlers And Openers Did The Job, Says Harmanpreet Kaur
Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium: India captain Harmanpreet Kaur lauded the bowlers and openers for taking the lead in the job of getting a comfortable victory over Pakistan in their first game of the 2024 Women’s Asia Cup.
The bowlers shone in a top-notch performance to bowl out Pakistan for 108 and set the base for the seven-wicket victory at the Rangiri Dambulla International Cricket Stadium on Friday. Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana shared an 85-run opening stand off just 57 balls to help India chase down the total with 35 balls to spare.
“Our bowlers and openers did the job. The first game is always a pressure game that sets the tone. Our entire unit played really well. When we were bowling, we were talking about early breakthroughs. With the bat, credit goes to Smriti and Shafali. We want to keep playing fearless cricket. How we played today, we are really happy with it,” said Harmanpreet after the match ended.
