After the win Indian Captain Harmanpreet Kaur said, 'I think we should give credit to our bowlers for the way they bowled. And also not to forget our fielders, who did well to keep the batters under pressure by helping the bowlers. We read the wicket really well and set the field according to it. Yes, that's what we thought. We weren't looking at the scorecard. We were targeting every five overs. We were looking to work in sets. And once we won each and every set, I knew that we were in front.'
