Indian women's team captain Harmanpreet Kaur has framed her squad's below-par performance against South Africa as a crucial learning opportunity ahead of the T20 World Cup in June.
The 'Women in Blue' experienced their first T20I series defeat since their group-stage exit at the last T20 World Cup, being outmaneuvered 0-3 by South Africa with two matches yet to play.
Previously riding high on victories against other top cricketing nations, Kaur stresses the importance of addressing shortcomings now, particularly with the team's bowling strategy, ensuring a stronger performance in the forthcoming World Cup.
