However, after the defeat, veteran pacer of the Indian team, Jhulan Goswami backed her teammates before the second ODI against England. “Well, it’s just the first match. The day before yesterday was her [Shafali Varma] debut, you cannot expect so much from her. That’s the impact she has had. They [Punam Raut, Mithali Raj, Harmanpreet Kaur] just need one good knock among them. Then definitely we’ll be on a great platform. These things happen in cricket,” she said.

“This is a sport. Every day is a new day, every day is new learning. And hopefully one good innings from the three – Punam… Mithali has been very consistent, in the South Africa series also she batted well, this series also in the first ODI she scored runs. Harman needs one good knock and she’ll be back. So we just need one good match from our middle order,” again shared Goswami.
