What the captains said

Winning Team Captain, Alyssa Healy (AUS-W)

(Which was more fun - scoring 158 or bowling?) Oh, bowling for sure. It didn't take much to get talked into either. I heard my name mentioned once and I said righto, but just to finish the ODI leg the way we did, yeah makes me really proud. And looking forward to heading to the WACA now and get stuck into the pink ball. I just think what a ridiculous sport we play that it can kick you down to so many times and then give you opportunities like it has today. I've hated every milestone match, so today was just an opportunity to go out and enjoy it. And it was , one of the more enjoyable experiences I've had. So thanks for the cricket gods for that. And yeah, that's a nice way to sign off in the yellow. Beth Mooney's been outstanding. The future's bright for our team. I'm looking forward to watching them go about their business over the next couple of years leading into that next one-day World Cup. I think they're going to do some fantastic things yet again.

Losing Team Captain Harmanpreet Kaur (IND-W)  

I think overall we didn't play good cricket. In T20, we were doing all the things right and in ODI, we didn't play good cricket. I think that that is something which cost us. ODI is, it's a long game and you have to keep doing the right things again and again. I think we kept making too many mistakes. And credit goes to the Australian team also, they really played good cricket and they didn't give us a chance to bounce back. But I think a lot of learnings for us and definitely we will go back and think how we have to go about in the ODI cricket. Keeping everybody in good space of mind, I think that is something which is very important. I know we have very less time to prepare for us but I think now it's only about believing in yourself and keeping yourself a good frame of mind and doing the right thing for the team.
