That’s a wrap from our side as well. Thank you for joining us from all around the globe. This is Prince Suman signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Tugral Azmi and Scorer / Analyst Parash Yadav. Do join us for the other fixtures across the globe. Until then, Ta-Ta, Bye-Bye.
Sophie Devine (New Zealand Women Captain): "We've always wanted to play cricket like this, regardless of the opposition. pleased with the bunch. Today, we discussed just following the procedures and not planning too far in advance. Certainly, there was a net run rate component, but we were unable to give it any thought. It simply took placing the skill on the group to realize how much talent this group have. The average age of the spin bowling group is around 20, and it has made great improvement in recent years. It's important to learn while doing, and the fishermen have been extremely terrific. It's all up for grabs. There is just so much we can influence."
Nigar Sultana (Bangladesh Women Captain): "I believe we are capable of greater than this. Against Sri Lanka and Australia, we played brilliantly, but tonight we gave up too many runs. We paid for it. The fact that we struggled in the powerplays was key. Individually, certain players stood out, notably U19 player Shorna. There wasn't a lot of international cricket, but things have changed significantly. We must continue with it."
Suzie Bates (Player of the Match): "This game was significant because of how the team and I started the World Cup. While our performance against South Africa was unsatisfactory, we were talking about playing the kind of cricket for which we are renowned. As a veteran player, it's crucial to provide an example for younger players. Scoring in a World Cup makes it unique. Our senior players have done well to guarantee that we're still in the competition."
