Batting Wasn’t Hard If One Applied Themselves And Showed Patience, Says Smriti Mandhana
Batter Jemimah Rodrigues: After clinching their first-ever win against Australia in women’s Tests in the one-off match at the Wankhede Stadium, India opener and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana felt batting wasn’t hard at the venue if the batters applied themselves and showed patience to make a mark with the bat.
Smriti was one of the significant contributors in India’s eight-wicket win over Australia, making a fine 74 in the first innings, and followed it up by being unbeaten on 38, including hitting the winning boundary over the bowler’s head to finish off the match in style.
“Definitely it wasn't that tough. We thought it was a rank turner when we saw the pitch, but if you applied yourself and showed patience, I think batting wasn't that hard. Credit to all the batters,” said Smriti after the match ended.
