Right from Harmanpreet Kaur to the coaching of Amol Muzumdar, Indian women’s team failed to go for the ‘kill’ in crucial moments in the Women’s T20 World Cup. Speaking after their nine-run loss to Australia, Muzumdar stated that the reigning champions’ experience got them through. “I think we were in the game right till the last over, just that experience of Australia saw them through,” Muzumdar said after the game. “A little disappointed with the loss. I feel we’ve fielded pretty well. A couple of chances could’ve been taken and things could’ve been different.” This goes to show, despite the experienced names in the team, Indian women’s team lacks the ‘killer instinct’ in crunch moments.
