Women’s World Cup: 247 A Fighting Total, Pitch And Conditions Will Suit Our Bowlers, Says Jemimah
ODI World Cup: India’s total of 247 may not be huge, but middle-order batter Jemimah Rodrigues believes it’s a fighting total, adding that the pitch and Colombo’s conditions are tailor-made for their five bowlers to do well against Pakistan in the ongoing 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup clash at the R Premadasa Stadium here on Sunday.
“It was not an easy pitch because it was covered for 48 hours. Moisture on the pitch and that was giving it a bit of hold, so this is a fighting total for us. We cannot take any team lightly. The pitch and the conditions will suit our bowlers a lot more,” said Jemimah, who hit 32, in a mid-innings chat with the broadcasters.
A 15-minute pest control delay earlier in India’s innings meant a shorter innings break was taken. “To be honest, I had to concentrate a lot more because you could not see much, but you have to do what you have to do,” added Jemimah.
