1st WT20I: ‘We Were 15-20 Runs Short, Couldn't Capitalise,' Says Jemimah After India’s Defeat To SA
T20 World Cup: India batter Jemimah Rodrigues admitted that the visitors fell short with the bat despite laying a strong early foundation, while also pointing out key areas for improvement following their six-wicket defeat to South Africa in the opening T20I at Kingsmead.
The hosts secured a six-wicket victory, taking a 1-0 lead in the five-match series to start the important home series on a high. This series also acts as a preparation for both teams ahead of the T20 World Cup, which begins on June 12 in England.
“I feel, starting off in batting, we were around 15-20 runs short. With the kind of start we got, I think Shafali Verma, the way she batted was great,” Jemimah said in the post-match press conference, highlighting how India failed to maximise a brisk powerplay.
