‘They deserve…’: Indian star batter wishes Women’s team to have a successful World Cup campaign

“We were all following the match. Because the way the match was played, I don’t think India has ever won a match like this in women’s cricket. I think the maturity and teamwork that was shown as a team, I think we are really proud of them,” said Abhishek during the post-match media interaction after the second T20I against Australia here.

“As Jemima, Harman and Samriti, they all played. And everyone played cameos in between. So, I think it didn’t feel like there was pressure on them. But obviously, as a team, Indian team, if you see that the women’s team is doing so well, then you get motivated, of course. Finally, I think they deserve the trophy the way they played the semi-final game. I think they really deserve it. And they are going to do well,” he said.
