Shafali Verma and Mandhana are at the crease. Prabodhani opens the attack
Veda Krishnamurthy: (On the catch) I thought it would fall short, but it went too high, the wind took it away from me. I knew where the boundary was. Once I caught it, I balanced myself, I pretty much nailed it. We've been fielding really well. We've been taking all the catches. As a team, we are looking good. I'm pretty satisfied with the fielding effort in all the four games. The bowlers have been doing a wonderful job. They stuck to their plans. We've got a good bowling attack and that's helping us. I'll be happy if the top order gets it done. It's a good wicket and the ball is coming on to the bat well. I just hope that the top order does it today.
