The Indian women’s team captain Harmanpreet Kaur on Friday insisted that her side will take its final group game against Sri Lanka seriously before shifting focus on to the semifinals.
“I know we have qualified, but the next game is still crucial for us. We will be taking Sri Lanka very seriously,” Harmanpreet said.
“They’ve been doing well. I know they haven’t won a game but they were almost there on both occasions. We will be taking it very seriously before we start thinking about the semi-finals,” she added
Victory over Sri Lanka on Saturday would see India top Group A and head into the semifinals high on confidence.
“We try to take every wicket in all of our games. Every wicket is an important one at this level. We just have to try and stick to our plan, especially to get out the likes of Chamari Athapaththu early. That will be crucial.” Harmanpreet said.
