The lose was very unfortunate. However with better coatching, training, physical and mentaltraining, incentives etc, these women can definitely achive much more. Even more than Kohli and Company. However many deficiencies were in full view- Mental toughness, big match psychology, presence of mind, startegy. Captain's body language also not upto the mark. However all these can change with better support and more exposure> All the Best to the team.
despite luck and fortune on our side ( they dropped 2 catches and missed a stumping) still we lost from a position of strength. sadly this opportunity may never ever come.

The women cricket team lost the match fighting very hard. they have made mistakes under pressure and luck did not favour them. However they have kept head high of every Indians.
Congratulations to Mithali & Co for giving us such a proud feeling with your show. Never mind not winning the cup. After all, experience matters at the big stage. But you won more than a billion hearts. You all command lot of respect. Who knows, an IPL equivalent will come for you all?

Yes we are very very proud of the team.They won our hearts indeed. While on the field, every time they threw at the stumps they hit it. Something our Gentlemen's team should from the ladies. Thank you Madams once again.

there are lot of bad player including captain.who showed total negative body language. she got run out lazily, plus she never motiviated and talked to bench players when match was tense.

Dhantannan, you only know criticism only ? In the past you criticise Saina. Have you ever played any competitive cricket or sport at high level and experience pressure of playing before the world ? Better stop acting like an idiot all the time.
