Jemimah Rodrigues, Player of the Match: I think more than my batting, happy with the win. MI is a really good team, so we had to give our best. We did that as a team. I am very happy honestly speaking, was a crucial time to come in. Wasn't the easiest of wickets, but was suitable for my type of batting. Learning from my past mistakes, was trying to go out there and be explosive. I went back after the Test match, worked on a few things coming into the WPL. Using the crease, timing the ball well, that was the game plan. I was playing on the bowler's mind, and that helped me a lot today.
Meg Lanning: It was a good game for us. We wanted to keep improving, we were up against a very good team. Having a set batter in the end is helpful, Jemi did that really well. I thought our bowlers set the innings up with early wickets. We were at par with the score, we understood the conditions, so we had to hit the length and target the stumps. Our bowlers did that really well.
Jess Jonassen, Purple Cap holder: Our batters set it up earlier in the day and that made the job easier for the bowlers. A few cheap ones (wickets) at the end but I will take anything I get. It (assessing the conditions) comes bit of an experience, always love coming and playing in India. Love being back on the cricket field and contribute for the Capitals in their victories. With about five overs to go, we were looking at 190. Mumbai Indians have such a quality batting line-up, so we needed a signifcant total. It was pleasure to watch Jemimah batting in that way from the other end.
Harmanpreet Kaur: I think while fielding, we gave away too many runs, it wasn't up to the mark, didn't take our chances. The positive is that we got 160 despite the top-order not contributing. We weren't aware of the pitch, that's the reason we chased. We expected dew, but it didn't come, the ball was also staying low and they bowled well. When we play on a ground where one side is short, the batter has a lot of things on mind, but if the bowlers keep bowling to a right line and length, we can keep the scoring down. But the shorter side did affect us when we batted. I thing change of pace was helping, especially when the slower ones were bowled, but we need to go back and think how we need to play on this wicket. She's been doing well, she didn't get a lot of batting previously, but she did well today (on Amandeep Kaur). If one or two batters had done well, we could have had a better chance with the chase.
