In the 1st ODI match against England, Team India all-rounder Deepti Sharma delivered a match-winning knock, which helped her side to seal a victory by four wickets.
Reflecting on her knock, Deepti said that she was waiting for an opportunity like this to perform.
"I was waiting for an opportunity like this. I wanted to build a partnership with Jemimah, scores 5-6 runs an over consistently. (On her sweep shots) I have worked a lot on it early days, and it helps on this kind of track," she said during the post-match presentation.
