The feeling of near misses has haunted Harmanpreet Kaur for long but the Indian captain feels that her team has ticked all the boxes in its bid to cross the line in the Women's T20 World Cup beginning in the UAE from October 3.
Since the tournament's inception in 2009, India have managed to reach the final only once -- in 2020 when they lost to nemesis Australia. India have also played WODI World Cup final in 2017. Harmanpreet has been a part of both teams and led in the 2020 T20 World Cup.
âThis is the best team we are going forward with. The players have been playing together for a long time. For us we came so close last time and lost in semis (2023). We have ticked all the boxes in terms of preparation compared to the small things were not there maybe in earlier editions,â said Harmanpreet at the pre-departure press conference for the T20 World Cup beginning October 3.

Checkmate!
I was going to press it for as long as I could possibly press, but I thought, 'It's OK. We are going to play for five, six hours. It's going to end in a draw, and let's focus on the tiebreaks.' But then suddenly after Rf2, I saw [the game] was actually done. I was already preparing myself to go through that huge tiebreak fight and suddenly it was all over and I had achieved my dream. I'm not someone who shows a lot of emotions, but I think this one can be forgiven.\"
