@coinism, The New Zealand women's team played really well and won the series against the Indian women's team with two matches to spare. I think it was a really dominating performance by the New Zealand women's team starting from the T20 actually.
They won the matches very convincingly in the end. Let's see if the Indian women's team can salvage something from this series.
We can't say Indian women's team is bad in its performance. In 49.3 overs India lost all the wicket scoring 279 runs. New Zealand batted second even after winning the toss. They played in a much steady manner from the very beginning of the match. Finally New Zealand won the match by the 50th over first ball. Scoring 280 runs, New Zealand have lost 7 wickets. Indian team will give the best in the upcoming days.
The Indian women's cricket team is not performing badly but I think is actually getting overshadowed by the bigger events like IPL and men's cricket. And BCCI has a really good flow of money from the men's cricket. So, I think even they are not that interested in promoting women's cricket right now.
At best they are competitive, they do play some good cricket but at the same time these girls also expose chinks in their armour. I was hoping 300+ score in last match considering openers set the platform beautifully but then batting collapse, if it wasn't for Deepti Sharma then they wouldn't even able to touch 200 marks. Same with bowling department, despite early wickets every now n then, they keep failing to take wickets in the middle.
I think probably the problem is their physique. In my opinion, they are getting tired quite quickly than the other team and that is a crucial part of the match where they are losing control. I think they are not conserving their energy and paying the price for it because when a player is fatigued she cannot do certain things correctly even though he/she has the skills to do it.
