Harmanpreet Kaur (India Women Captain): "Yeah I am absolutely alright. It was a great feeling especially the way we batted. We wanted to stay at the wicket and I told Richa to back herself and I think she batted really well. My role was to stay at the wicket and capitalize on the loose balls.
The way Richa Ghosh batted I feel she took the pressure off me and I am really happy with the way we played in this game. Yeah definitely, today also despite losing 3 quick wickets, everyone played according to the situation and really pleased with the performance tonight."

Richa Ghosh (Player of the Match): "I am really happy because when I play with Harry di (Harmanpreet Kaur), she always guides me on how the ball is coming onto the bat and the behavior of the pitch, so I really enjoy it. When I get the chance, I just want to perform based on what I know and have been practicing. The first cover drive was my favorite. (On concussion recovery) Yeah, I am feeling good now."
Player of the Match: Richa Ghosh
Esha Oza (UAE Women Captain): "Well they were a really experienced side and it was really hard to build an Innings for us. We saw how they played the entire game and we need to learn a lot from them.
We bowled really well in the first half of the Innings with the ball but after picking up 3 wickets, we couldn't keep the pressure on them as the took the game away from us and finished off really well. We have a game in our hands versus Pakistan Women and we will look to score more with the bat."
