Sir's stern words fired up Team India: Harmanpreet

Navi Mumbai, Nov 1 (UNI) Picture this: India's Women’s World Cup campaign hitting a rocky patch, three straight defeats, tension simmering in the dressing room. And there she was, captain Harmanpreet Kaur, standing calm at the strong reaction from Coach Amol Muzumdar.
"I didn’t speak a word after that match… He [Amol Muzumdar] was a little aggressive, in a good way. But everybody took it so positively,” she told reporters. "Sir was expecting something from us… everybody took that in a positive way and the result was evident today."
Muzumdar described the post-match interaction as a brief but pointed exchange. "I just had a little bit of a chat with the players. You, you should have finished the match. I did say a few things in the dressing room but in a good spirit," he said.
