Indian batter Jemimah Rodrigues admitted they were short of runs in the opening women’s T20I, in which India finished with 157-7, a total that SA chased down comfortably to seal a six-wicket win here on Friday.

“We were 15-20 runs short. Two wickets falling in two overs, but then Harmanpreet Kaur and I getting that partnership back. When we had built that momentum and time came to capitalise, we were not able to,” Rodrigues said.
