'We wanted to bat first. We want to put a score on the board. This is a really important game for us. We want to give our everything for this game. Our batters have been in bad patches and I hope that they will come back. Bowlers have been doing well. Same team." Nigar Sultana said.

The Indian star hoped that her team will recover after the defeat against South Africa in their last game.
"I think it's a good wicket to bat on but if you spend some time on the wicket it is a really good. But there is something in it for the bowling group as well. Good pitch to bat and ball. We just have to react. First get the win and see how it goes." Harmanpreet Kaur said.
