Want to win the series at any cost: Harmanpreet Kaur

Praise for Smriti Mandana
The Indian captain said that as a professional cricketer, you have to keep pushing yourself and keep moving forward. We discussed these things in team meetings, so I’m happy that we were able to bounce back from the loss in the last game. I want to thank Smriti. She struggled at first, but she managed to score. Very happy with our partnership. He said the team needs to work harder to become the best defensive team in the world.
