For the 'Women's T20 World Cup 2024'; before going to the event, the Indian Captain said - 

Harmanpreet: 'This is our best ever team at a T20 World Cup'

And the team did not even come as the best in its group (not even second best); and it did not make it to the Semi-Final. If this is what the Team's Captain feels as the best from the team, then it is a pity.

And if the team failed to meet their own set expectations, then it is hard to comprehend the preparation and practice that were put in, which made the Captain to feel that this was the best ever team for an event like T20 World Cup.

In any case, this is simply a case of 'eating one's own words' as the results are very unacceptable. May the best happen in future...
