Indian women’s cricket team head coach Amol Muzumdar said the side didn’t play up to their potential in the Women’s Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka and lost the record-extending eighth continental title in Dambulla on Sunday.
Muzumdar admitted that the team failed to execute their plans right and missed opportunities in the fielding.
“Well actually, to be very honest, in one odd game we didn’t play well; we didn’t execute whatever we hoped for. But that’s about it,” Muzumdar said speaking to Star Sports.
“We’ve been dominating right through the last series against South Africa and this tournament also. So I think in one odd game we didn’t play to the potential, but credit needs to go where it’s supposed to go, and I think Sri Lanka batted really well,” Muzumdar added.
“I think in all three departments we have shown some great character. Our batting has been good for the last two months; we’ve seen that the batting has been really good. The bowlers have done their job; the bowlers have been fantastic in the tournament, and also against South Africa, the bowlers did wonders over there. And progressively we are going ahead in our fielding department also,” Muzumdar concluded.
