Post-Match Reflections
"Very proud. I don’t have words to express myself. Feeling great, this time we have crossed that line which we have been working towards for so many years."
"Today, we wanted everything to go in our favour in every situation, and kept telling ourselves to be there for the team, and that worked for us."
The team learned valuable lessons from their previous match against England, recognizing the importance of timely execution and calculated risks, especially in the crucial last overs.
"That day (against England earlier), we realised we did not execute well. We were late by 2-3 overs; we could have taken risks a few overs earlier, and that cost us."
"The last five overs are where you have to be very particular and calculative. We knew what we had to do in the same situation, and we wanted to finish it before the 50th over."
Looking Ahead
India’s victory sets the stage for an exciting final against South Africa, where both sides have a strong chance to claim the coveted Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 title.
