Harmanpreet Kaur (India Women Captain): "Thank you so much. Feeling great. We thought of how to win the game and credit to everyone in getting us the win. It was a great effort from us to get the win. It was a plan and we have to execute it. We had nice preparations and was doing situation wise. That helped us a lot. First 40 minutes were crucial. And if we get quick wickets we can win the game. Winning the game was more important than getting 50s. All of them were magnificent including Pooja and many congratulations to each and everyone of them for the win. Thank You so much."
