Young fast bowler Kranti Goud described her getting Player of the Match award post India's huge 88-run win over Pakistan in the Women's ODI World Cup clash here as a ‘very proud moment'.

Kranti returned figures of 3-20 in her 10 overs, including six bowled on the trot, to play a pivotal role in dismantling Pakistan's top order and ensuring India's unbeaten run in the tournament continues.

"When I took six wickets in England and Harman [Harmanpreet Kaur] di shared the Player of the Match award with me, to now getting Player of the Match award in a World Cup, that was also a very proud moment, this too is also a very proud moment, as it's not a small deal to achieve this in a World Cup game.

"I have been playing my matches normally, following everything the coaches have advised me, and applying it in every game. I will carry this momentum forward," said Kranti in a video posted on bcci.tv.
