Jemimah talks
Jemimah Rodrigues took social media to express her emotions a day after the India women’s cricket team missed out on a historic gold medal at the CWG 2022 in Birmingham.
“This team is different. The grit, determination and character shown throughout this tournament was something else. There were many special moments, but I guess at the same time cricket never stops teaching us. I know we didn’t get the gold, but is it okay to say that I’m still proud of this team? We won’t stop until we turn this Silver into Gold! “Sath Mein Girenge Sath Mein Uthenge Hum Hai Team India Hum Sath Mein Chalenge!”
Jemimah wrote on Instagram and Twitter.
India was in the final match and gave hope to netizens about the historic gold medal. India had a wonderful 96-run partnership for the third wicket between Jemimah and captain Harmanpreet Kaur.
After losing two crucial wickets, the way Jemi (Jemimah Rodrigues) and I batted was much needed at that time. You need to hold your nerves. We were nearly there. Maybe if Pooja (Vastrakar) or I were around, we could’ve won the game. But that is part of the game; sometimes some things you can’t control. It is great learning for us”
said Indian Skipper, Harmanpreet Kaur post-match.
