Player of the match Ashleigh Gardner, ‘‘Bowling the last over, I reckon my average heart rate was probably 190.”
“I think that shows the way that we fight at the end as a team. That’s what we spoke about in the huddle right at the end was that we probably weren’t in a winning position, but that’s what this team does best.
“When our backs are up against the ball, we find a way and we scrap really hard.
“The fight that we showed shows the character of this team.”
India captain Harmanpreet Kaur, “Can’t be unluckier than this, to get that momentum back when me and Jemi were batting.”
“And to lose after that, we didn’t expect this today. The way I got runout, can’t be unluckier than that.”
“Putting in the effort was more important. We discussed about fighting till the last ball. The result didn’t go our way, but I am happy with the way we played in this tournament. We know we have a good batting line up even if we lose early wickets.”
