00:30I think putting 400 plus I think really good sign for women's cricket I mean I
00:43know the wicket was really good to bat on Rajkot is always a good wicket to
00:46bat on but but really pleased with the girls all the girls for the way they
00:50batted today and even when they came out to bowl I think really clinical with
00:54their performance yeah I think with cricket you know it's a very tricky game
01:06and especially in one day cricket you can't predict anything but but
01:10definitely we started really well Pratik was batting well as well and and and
01:15yeah I think with one one thing which cricket has definitely taught that you
01:20have to take one ball at a time and not think too far ahead but yeah I think
01:23around 35th over is when we actually felt that oh we could actually go past
01:27400 which which which will be a pretty cool thing to do
01:42yeah I think everyone got much needed game time which is always good I think
01:47as I said in the postmatch you could bat as much as you can in nets but you know
01:53sometimes going out and actually scoring those runs gives you a lot of
01:56confidence I know Ireland definitely you know we would want to do these sort of
02:01things against England or Australia as well but but yeah I think runs are
02:06something which always gives a lot of confidence to our batters and I'm I'm
02:09really happy for I think Pratika, Harleen, Jamie, Richa all of them were got like a
02:15good game time and were among among runs
02:23yeah I think as you said would love to carry this wicket as as a batter for
02:38sure but as a captain I don't know because you know it's a hard wicket to
02:41bowl on but yeah I think for me it was very clear that I really wanted to go
02:45out and try and play shots which are in my arc because as I said I think it's
02:51it's not like every day you get that opportunity to do as a opening batter
02:55sometimes you have to go out respect the conditions and play but wickets like
02:59these and outfield I think if it's in your slot you have to go for it so
03:03there's no no clear plan I just said I just said if it's in my arc I'm gonna go
03:07for it some days it comes off some days it doesn't today I'm happy that it came
03:10off I think today the wicket also gave a lot of assistance to a spinner to our
03:25spinners you know I think because it was the same wicket which was used in the
03:29first two years as well so there was a little bit spin on offer I think first
03:33two one days there was not much in it so and also they are they today came out
03:38and we're trying to play some shots and sometimes you know when you when the
03:42batters play shots there's a best time you get the opportunity to get them out
03:45in the first two one days I thought that you know they were just trying to take
03:50a take a single or double which again you it's a hard it's a hard wicket to
03:54bowl and try and get them out so I wouldn't say that you know bowlers did
03:59not do in the first or second ODI I think they bowled brilliantly in the
04:02first second ODI as well but today I felt the there's a little bit more in
04:07the wicket for them and and again as I said the batters playing shots helps
04:19yeah I think they both bowled really well got us the first two early wickets
04:25which which is always good to get with the new ball sets the foundation for the
04:29spinners to come and and yeah I think Saima, Saily, Theta all three bowled
04:34really well throughout the three ODIs and it's a pretty difficult wicket and
04:38outfield to bowl so really happy for them
04:48yeah I'm really pleased with the way she's batting I think you know I feel has
04:54a really calm head on her shoulders knows what she's doing has I think both
04:59sort of games where
