But Shafali was not out. GIven out. She was showing intent. I don't think batters were not mainly issue. Indian bowling needs to improve massively. Shreyanka patil should have been played. She is a very good defensive bowler.

Shreyanka broke her finger and Tanuja came in. This was a flat wicket

160 against any decent team with strikers was never going to be challenging. Bowling is awful. Renuka...lol.

 

But in women's cricket it is not that easy.  Especially underdog team like SL should have never been allowed to get anywhere close. Pakistan almost defended 145 against SL.

One of the most disgusting results in recent times.

Captain too is a problem, very poor management of resources, yadahav shouldnt have gotten that 18th over after being tonked in just the previous over she bowled and with same field

Flat wicket and they didnt have guts to chase. No intent at top. And we talk about intent. Dropped 3 catches. Radha was poor. No variation. 

 

Arrey bhai aap toh bole 40 runs se jeetenge

Last Asia Cup won by Toygresses. This time Lankans.

Got too overconfident. Didnt know we had such abysmal bowling. From days of Jhulan bowling at 135 and yorkers to this.. sad

If India needs to compete against Australia , England they have to step up in the bowling department big time. Quiet often their bowling and fielding is a massive let down.

no DRS here?

[Lord]

People say fielding doesn't matter but you can judge energy levels by fielding display. SL women were diving around.

 

Same thing happened in 2023 finals.

[Norman]

Imagine giving a bull about women's cricket.. 

 

Tagging @New guy for absolutely no reason 

[Frustrated]

S Mandhana looks elegant while playing her shots. But doesn't hv a 3rd gear even after getting set.  And she has been playing intl cricket for so long.  Since 2016. (IIRC).  Can't win an ICC trophy with such openers. Can't win even low profile tournaments like Asia Cup.  LOL

Regarding Harmanpreet, the less said the better.

Sorry, India won last edition in 22. Toygresses won the edition before that beating us in the final.

Richa was out when she was 10. Clear edge. Not given. No excuses.

Its idiotic that these women get paid same contracts as men. Should earn that. Clearly they are arrogant.

 

Wokeism feminism loda lasunism to blame..

 

How the fukk do these women get the same pay as senior men when their skill levels are probably at u-15 boys level and thus generate barely any revenue.
