‘Credit goes to each and every member’

"Last game also we spoke, that self-belief was there that, you know, even though we lost three back-to-back games, but we knew this team had something special to turn things around the table. So I think credit goes to each and every member. They stayed positive. They knew what we have to do in the next three games. And I think everybody was so involved," she added. 

It was a win for the ages as India clinched the silverare for the first time. Surely, this will act as a tectonic shift in the mindsets of fans and most certainly women's cricket will now take centrestage.
