"We could have done better in the initial six overs and we lost two quick wickets in that area. After that girls played well especially Prathyusha," she also added.
Parveen Khan, the captain of Punjab said, "Its Punjab's first time in the finale and we have won thanks to my team, coach and everyone. It was a pleasure to be a captain to such a side that bats, bowls and fields well."
