New Delhi, Nov 7

India batter Pratika Rawal said the historic Women’s ODI World Cup triumph is a reward not just for the hard work done by the current squad, but also for the generations of legendary players who laid the foundation for women's cricket in the country.

An emotional Jhulan stood between captain Harmanpreet Kaur and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana, while expressing her gratitude to both of them. After Jhulan, Mithali held the trophy aloft with a radiant smile, surrounded by applause from the squad she once led.

“So it felt really good to see everyone was in tears and had utmost joy. They were enjoying and lifting the trophy. There are a lot of pictures and I've saved them in my phone and I want to keep them in my phone for the entire life,” added Pratika.
