That is how Shafali Verma described what it’s prefer to face the Australians. “When I play against Australia, it feels like I’m playing against men because their game is like that. If they see a small mistake that you are making, they will take advantage of it. So we have to be on top of our game against them. You can’t make mistakes against them. You have to play your best shots, which you are confident about. I learnt a lot while playing against Australia. I love playing against them. Aisa lagta hai ki ladkon ke sath hi khel rahe hain (it seems you are playing against a men’s team),” she informed reporters

They produced a efficiency that made it an evening to recollect for the capability crowd on the DY Patil Stadium.

India have equalised this sequence as soon as earlier than, that too in probably the most dramatic of fashions.

They clearly like competing in opposition to the Australians however their performances in opposition to the all-conquering aspect from Down Under tends to veer between meek and terribly inspiring. Wonder which Indian crew we’ll get to see as we speak.
