Suzie Bates (Falcons Women captain): "In cricket, if you don't take your chances against a quality side, you lose those matches. We weren't at our best in the field. We have three days off, and we intend to recover. It would have been nice if one of us batted through, but we were short of 15 runs in the end. Satish was brilliant, and she and I enjoy batting together and putting up a partnership. Today's wicket played well, and it was a fantastic game of cricket. With Kapp, Mariko, and Jahanara all bowling well today, we have a lot of options."
Sindhu Sriharsha( Warriors Women Captain): "Yeah, definetely a great start for the tournament and it's a team efforts. We came and chase it down at the end. Suzie and Satish take the game away from us but we came back with both wickets and restricted well. Yeah, great win this was."
Kathryn Bryce(Player of the Match) "Great to performanec for the team and feeling really well. Yeah, the picth was good hits the balls in the good area. Yeah, great win it's good to go ahed."
