“We were hoping we’d get there because everybody’s feeling very positive about women’s cricket at the moment. We’ll get a lot of attention back home because everyone wants us to play good cricket and they’re expecting us to do well.


“We will try to give our best. If we win, definitely we’ll get a lot of attention and a lot of love from back home. Hopefully, like we got in the 2017 World Cup Final, we’ll get a very good day for women’s cricket,” Harmanpreet Kaur concluded.
