Mumbai Indians became the first team to lift the title of the inaugural Women’s Premier League on Sunday. MI’s skipper Harmanpreet Kaur revealed what this moment meant for her as a captain and a player in the post-match conference.
Personally I was waiting for this moment for a long time when I can as a captain win something which is so important for women’s cricket and this time we were able to do it and I think I just want to keep doing this in future also and I hope the momentum we got in this tournament we want to continue for the next season also and all the Indian players who ever did well and I am hoping that whenever they join Indian team they will also give their 100% for the Indian team also, said Harmanpreet Kaur.
MI bowlers played a crucial part at the end of the day to hand MI victory over Delhi Capitals. Their ruthless aggressive bowling kept the pressure on Delhi Capitals throughout the first innings. Harmanpreet shed some light on why their bowlers were more effective than DC bowlers.
I think when we were bowling we knew that we had the capacity to all out any team. The most important thing was that every bowler had their own plans and they stuck to them. If you keep changing the bowling style and you don’t stick to your plans, then it becomes difficult for you. I think the reason we ended up getting so many wickets was that they implemented it during the match.
