Women's World Cup, IND vs BAN: In the pre-match press conference, Sobhana Mostary said that Marufa Akter and Rabeya Khan are good enough to represent teams in the Women's Premier League.
00:00How do you prepare yourself to control the scoring?
00:14We prepared our batting side and also focused our fielding side also.
00:23In the batting side, we practice the partnership and use the power play also and reduce the dot balls, we focus more.
00:38Just going back to the previous match, you had the game in complete control and to lose from that sort of a position.
00:47How much does it hurt given that you were nearly there in complete control of the match yet ended on the losing side and then if you look at the current standing in the table, you have a win but yet at the bottom of the table.
00:58How much mental pressure does it put on the group in particular?
01:03Yes, last day we saw we are in the now eight. So, it's very disappointing. We own one match against Pakistan and some create also big teams. So, it does not work and last match we lose against Sri Lanka. It's very hard to us. So, everyone is disappointing.
01:28Hi, all the best for tomorrow's game. You guys have, you are eliminated yes, but you guys have so much riding on tomorrow's game like depending on where you finish in the points table, there could be a significant difference between the money that you take home and how that's going to, you know, just be a motivator for young girls coming up in Bangladesh, you know, taking up cricket.
01:54Could you just talk about some of the challenges that, you know, as cricketers, you guys are facing in sort of building that supply chain for, you know, the national side?
02:05So, you question like the challenges in Bangladesh, the challenges in domestic system, the challenges of the domestic system in Bangladesh.
02:15Okay. So, we played in one year is two domestic. It's a one Premier League and one NCL. It's division game. So, lots of girls are playing this like a seven, eight teams and we played in Premier League 10 teams.
02:31Uh, and also, uh, first division and second division also we are starting. So, so every year is, uh, going. So, lots of talents coming in that type of domestic and they are also performing.
02:44So, new girls are in betting also, they score like a lots, like, you know, Sumaya, she's coming also like a domestic performance. She last two, three years, she scores lots of runs.
02:57So, yeah, now my, our domestic tournament is going is a good.
03:02Are there also challenges, uh, significant challenges in terms of maybe infrastructure nahi hai hai, you know, uh, there are not enough girls coming through or anything, any challenges that you guys are facing as.
03:16Okay. So, uh, yeah, when in Premier League is playing, so 10 teams, like 16 is a good enough, but like a four teams is a, like a, uh, 50, 50.
03:28So, in before, like five years ago, so there, that time is two, three teams is good, but now is five, 16 is good.
03:36So, in middle, like Dhaka and north side, there's lots of girls playing, but in the, um, like south side, there is some of girls coming to play cricket.
03:48So, maybe, uh, now we are, uh, playing the World Cup, everyone watching this World Cup, every Bangladeshi, everyone is watching.
03:57So, maybe lots of girls coming in, in cricket.
04:01Um, so, uh, my question was about your captain, uh, Negar Sultana Jyoti.
04:09Uh, obviously, uh, you guys didn't have much preparation heading into the tournament, you know, playing bigger sides or anything like that.
04:15But, can you just talk, uh, talk to us about her captaincy, because we always see her, you know, being very energetic behind the stumps,
04:22and always, even when she's batting, she always keeps talking to the other batter.
04:25I think after every ball, she comes and does that, and even with the bowlers, bowlers as well.
04:30So, something about her, what makes her stand out as a captain?
04:34So, uh, Jyoti Appu, uh, she, uh, captain, like, uh, is awesome to us, because we played a long time with her, last 10 years, and, uh, she's, like, a very cool, cool guy.
04:51So, um, like, in balling time, so, you know, everyone is junior since our team, like, 17, 20, Rabia, 20, uh, Nishita, 17, so, except Nahida.
05:04Nahida also discussing Jyoti because they are playing together, together.
05:08So, I think, uh, in, uh, experience, she coming and telling, uh, the way to ball and way to bat, and she also come to us.
05:21So, before she come to us and, uh, uh, telling Savannah, uh, uh, the waltz don't about you, what you are, and Sharna also, always she is speaking juniors and, like, seniors also, like, Pinky Appu.
05:35Uh, every time, uh, she, like, it depends on Jyoti, like, Jyoti, you talking good things to me, then maybe I play good.
05:43So, uh, Jyoti Appu always a, like, captain cool.
05:46Uh, how much of a, uh, this thing, you know, motivation it is to, to beat India and to, you know, because, uh, India is such a hype in the World Cup.
05:57Uh, and also, uh, perhaps motivation that, uh, you could get a WPL contract if you, you know, put up a good show.
06:04Uh, so, uh, how much of all that is motivating?
06:07Yeah, now, uh, WPL is a very most, uh, uh, uh, franchisee.
06:13So, uh, every time, uh, we, uh, uh, like, uh, send our name also, but they are not pick us to, like, uh, pick up to Bangladesh, maybe.
06:25But, we are, uh, thinking about this tournament, uh, like, Marufa, uh, doing very good.
06:32So, in this condition, in Indian condition, and, um, like, Rabia also very good bowling this tournament.
06:40So, maybe, uh, we thought about, it's very, uh, like, upcoming, uh, WPL, maybe they are, it's good, uh, things.
06:49Hi, uh, you said yesterday the spirits in the dressing room are down after Sri Lanka loss.
06:54So, how is the environment now ahead of the India clash?
06:58Uh, so, uh, after losing game, next two days, we are very, uh, hard.
07:05Uh, and they are not sleeping, right?
07:07Last four days, we are not sleeping.
07:09Uh, now, our management also, like, uh, they are not talking about any negative things.
07:16They are always, uh, talking about, talking about positive things, like, uh, you are playing good,
07:22but maybe some, their mistake we create, and we lose the game.
07:26So, now, we are, it's a good vibes, but, like, we are now, we won the one match, and it's number eight for reigning.
07:35So, it's a very disappointing, but, tomorrow is our game.
07:39Everyone is, like, a positive and go through that type of vibes.
08:04Hi, uh, good evening.
08:05How are you?
08:06Yes, please.
08:07Uh, my question is that the Indian team has scored a lot of batsmen against Murti Mandana.
08:20So, what do they tackle or do they make a different plan?
08:21Um, uh, not like a difference.
08:24So, uh, our spinners always doing the same things in the practice time.
