‘Forget What Happened In The Previous Over’: Deepti Reveals Mindset Behind Routing Pakistan With 5-fer
T20 World Cup: India all-rounder Deepti Sharma has shed light on the conversations that helped her side wrest control back from Pakistan in their Women's T20 World Cup opener, revealing that calmness and belief within the bowling group played a key role in scripting a dramatic turnaround.
Deepti, who produced a match-winning five-wicket haul after Pakistan made a promising start to their chase, described the performance as one of the most memorable moments of her career. The spell came after Pakistan had threatened to put India under pressure during the Powerplay. However, Deepti revealed that the mood within the camp remained composed during the first drinks break despite the early challenge.
"It's difficult to pick one moment because everything I was able to do in this game was special, but I'll go with the five-wicket haul. It's very rare in an ICC tournament to pick up a fifer and end up winning the game for your team. When the first drinks break happened, the discussion was about stepping up a little because we know the quality of talent and players we have in our side,” Deepti told JioStar.
