India registered a comprehensive 30-run win over Sri Lanka in the fourth women’s T20I here on Sunday, but captain Harmanpreet Kaur admitted that she had to tell her bowlers to rush with their overs towards the end in order to avoid slow over-rate charges.

Kaur was seen worked up towards the end while instructing her teammates towards the end of Sri Lanka’s innings in the second half of the game.


Asked about it at the post-match presentation, she said, “We were getting short in time and I wanted everyone be on time. I didn’t want three fielders outside the in-field. I try to improve from my mistakes.”



With the five-match series already in the pocket, Kaur indicated that more changes could be brought in for the final T20I.

“We thought we will give chance to Harleen (Deol), but [given] how it went [today], we sent [in] Richa early. Smriti and Shafali didn’t let Harleen bat.”
Sri Lanka captain Chamari Athapaththu said, “At least we have improved in our batting. But still we need to improve especially in power-hitting.”
