What They Said
New Zealand’s Maddy Green: “I think we’re just trying to win every game we play. The conversations about net run rate will happen later in the tournament, but we’re just focused on tomorrow, making sure we’re winning that game. We’ve sort of talked about as a group just one game at a time, just being really focused on that. Yeah, and it’s most important to get the win first.”
Sri Lanka captain Chamari Athapaththu: “Usually, if I score, the other players score too, it’s easy for us to win the matches. In this tournament, our first second third and fourth players were not there in the scores. That’s why I think we lost the tournament.”
