I Knew Winning Is Going To Make Me Emotional Rather Than Losing: Mandhana
The Indian opener also mentioned how the missed opportunities of the team coming close to winning major tournaments but facing heartbreaks in the knockouts left a mark on her heart but at the same time motivated her and the team to work hard and have the ‘Champions’ tag on their chest.
“I have been playing international cricket for over a decade now. We have had 2017 and then 2020, a little bit of heartbreak, and then a lot of semifinal heartbreaks as well, where we thought we could go over the line. Every time that happened, it left a lot of marks within your heart. There is only motivation to get better and try and have ‘champions’ on our chest, but really, really happy and proud of the team. As an athlete, it feels amazing because you play cricket to win the World Cup; you dream about that as a kid. To play in front of 50-plus odd thousand people in your home city and to do it, I am just really proud of the team,” she said in a video shared by the BCCI.
