Harmanpreet said – could not rotate the strike, played a lot of ‘dot’ balls

Indian women’s cricket team captain Harmanpreet Kaur on Wednesday said they could not rotate the strike after their 21-run loss to Australia in the third T20 International at the Brabourne Stadium. Harmanpreet said he was confident that the team could chase down the target of 173 but playing too many ‘dot’ balls restricted the team to 151 for seven in 20 overs. The Australian team thus took a 2–1 lead in the five-match series. Harmanpreet said after the match, “Yeah, definitely after getting them close to 170, we thought we had a chance. ,

He said, “But I think we scored less than six runs in a few overs, which cost us. We played a lot of dot balls after hitting boundaries, we needed to rotate the strike but that didn’t happen. India scored 106 runs for two wickets thanks to Shefali Verma (52 runs in 41 balls) and captain Harmanpreet Kaur (37 runs in 27 balls). Both of them added 73 runs in just 8.4 overs. The Indian captain said, “Both of us wanted to stay till the end but we also had to hit boundaries and sometimes you lose wickets while playing like this. ,

Praising the bowling of Anjali Sarwani and Renuka Singh, he said, “Yeah, the way they are taking responsibility and playing for the team, it is great to see. We are impressed with his bowling. Australian captain Alyssa Healy said, “Today the top order didn’t work but the middle order did a great job.” Ellyse Perry played a brilliant inning. Proud of the team. Parry was the ‘Player of the Match’ after playing an inning of 75 runs.
