2nd WT20I: Didn’t Bat Well In Last Ten Overs, Need To Think For Next Three Games, Says Harmanpreet
Match Chloe Tryon: After suffering an eight-wicket defeat to South Africa in the second T20I, India captain Harmanpreet Kaur admitted that the side didn’t bat well in the last ten overs of their innings and that a lot of thinking needs to happen for their approach in the last three matches.
A middle-order batting collapse led to India being bowled out for 147, despite Shafali Verma hitting 57 in her 100th T20I game. Then a poor bowling effort and sloppy time in fielding meant South Africa completed the chase with 17 balls to spare, thanks to half-centuries from skipper Laura Wolvaardt and Sune Luus and take a 2-0 lead in the five-game series.
"I think with the bat, we were not able to contribute the way we wanted. In the last ten overs of the innings we did not bat well. We need to think about how we go about the next three matches. Powerplay, while bowling, is not going our way. Tough time. We as a team need to stay together," Harmanpreet said during the post-match presentation ceremony.
