Senior All‑Rounder Deepti Sharma Praises Verma’s Temperament in Semi‑Final Victory

Veteran all‑rounder Deepti Sharma voiced admiration for Verma’s composure during the high‑pressure encounter. "The ball wasn't coming in the way she wanted, and the pitch was challenging," Sharma noted. "She kept her cool, trusted her shot selection, and displayed a clear mindset throughout the innings. Those small adjustments made a huge difference."

Sharma also reflected on her own role, saying, "I was thrilled to get a few deliveries in the death overs and contribute with the bat. As an all‑rounder, impacting all three facets – batting, bowling, and fielding – is essential. When you perform across departments, you give your team that extra edge."

Her bowling spell complemented Verma’s batting, as Sharma claimed three wickets for just 26 runs in four overs, further tilting the balance in India’s favour.
