Mandhana wants to repeat the performance against Pakistan

Mandhana is hopeful that the team will repeat this performance against Pakistan. She revealed that the team hasĀ done their research on the Pakistan team, but she also made it clear that there is no single player and they have done research on all 15 players.

Want to give my 100%: Mandhana
The Indian opener also stated that she wants to give her 100 per cent in every match and that is the only aim she has.
According to the India cricketer, if she thinks about expectations then she won’t be able to perform, which she didn’t do in the last match. So it’s better for her not to put pressure on herself and just enjoy the game.
Mandhana explains team’s learning from last gameĀ
At the same time Mandhana spoke about the lessons Indian team has learnt from the match against New Zealand.
She observed that from every win, they have to take their points out. For the Powerplay, she thinks that they didn’t get the kind of start they expect they batters to give and personally she admits she didnāt bat the way she does.
