"Defending a 49-metre boundary is difficult"- GG captain Beth Mooney after loss against MI in WPL 2024

At the post-match presentation, GG skipper Beth Mooney reflected on the tough loss, saying:

"In T20 cricket you really have to bowl well. 190 was a good score but not enough after the start we got. Credit goes to Mumbai, they batted brilliantly. TK and Ashu bowled beautifully. Defending a 49-metre boundary is difficult. MI batted beautifully and took it on. I think there are still a lot of positives to take from today."

She continued:

"Certainly from the batting perspective, we are clicking. Some good shots have been played on good balls but we have conceded a few boundaries in the middle. She is a great character and hits the ball very cleanly. She made my job so easy. She said she loves batting with me."

DC and RCB will square off in the 17th match of WPL 2024 on Sunday (March 10) in Delhi.
