"I think our fielding was not up to the mark" MI captain Harmanpreet Kaur after the loss vs DC in WPL 2024
Mumbai Indians skipper Harmanpreet Kaur reflected on the loss during the post-match presentation, saying:
"I think our fielding was not up to the mark, gave away too many runs and dropped catches didn't help, we still ended up scoring runs as our top order didn't contribute much.
"As I mentioned, we're not aware of the pitch, that was the only reason to chase today, we were expected dew and wasn't there any, kept low too and they didn't give us much to work with either.
Kaur further spoke about her side's unfamiliarity with the pitch dimensions, saying:
"When we play on a ground where it's a bit short on one side, as a bowler they needed to stick to the plan and that can give us the result. It was a big target, thought we could hit the shorter side.
"Change of pace was helping to the bowlers, it was keeping low only then but otherwise batters were able to play shots but it's a different wicket than Chinnaswamy."
