Pakistan or Sri Lanka in the final? 'Doesn't matter,' says Deepti Sharma
"I think that it will be a day here or a day there, it happens," Deepti Sharma says after India had another poor fielding day in the Women's T20 Asia Cup semi-final against Bangladesh
India has advanced to their sixth consecutive Women's T20 Asia Cup final, beating Bangladesh by 40 runs in the semi-final. India posted 149 for 6, with Shafali Verma scoring 64 off 40 balls, despite struggling to find timing with the rest of the batting lineup. Bangladesh was restricted to 109 for 7.
India's fielding was error-prone, with four dropped catches, according to The Island Sri Lanka. Despite this, Bangladesh was unable to capitalize, with Shafali Verma living a "charmed life" after being dropped multiple times.
Deepti Sharma remained unfazed about the opponent in the final, saying that it doesn't matter who they face, as quoted by ESPNcricinfo. She also mentioned that poor fielding is not uncommon, saying "it will be a day here or a day there, it happens".
