Time to conclude our coverage from an absolute gem of a T20 game between Mumbai Indians Women and Gujarat Giants Women. For now, this is Saptak Sanyal signing off on the behalf of my co-commentator Hitesh Peddurwar and our scorer/analyst Raju Khariya. Good night.
Harmanpreet Kaur (Player of the Match and Mumbai Indians Women Captain)- "It was a very big game for us so that we did not put more pressure on us. We had the belief in ourselves and we knew we had a big batting order, so I took the chances. Yesterday, I had a chat with Himanshu bhaiya and decided to go deep in the chase. The positive thing for us was that we didn't lose a wicket early inside the powerplay. When the sprinklers came out, we thought that we have got a good time to have water and we discussed more on our game plan. I told Kerr to keep our nerves cool and then we did the chase successfully."

Yastika Bhatia (Mumbai Indians Women Captain)- "Definitely the wicket was a tad slower and lower so I tried to play straight to minimize the risk as playing across shots are tough. We discussed that we have built a good start in the first 6 overs and we have to go at 8 or 9 runs per over till 13th over. It was a masterclass from Harry di(Harmanpreet Kaur). She took all the pressures and kept her cool to give us a win. Yes there was some nerves but Harry di was superb today."
