“She is thinking that the bat is stuck, but if you see the second run, it looks like she was jogging. Why are you running comfortably when you know your wicket is so important? Team India Your staying in the game was very important to get us the win. Look at Perry’s dive to save those two runs. That’s what professional cricket is all about.”

Diane added –

“They don’t give up till the end and we are not ready to fight at all. You can’t lose every time at the last moment. She was running comfortably on the second run. They thought she would reach easily. We were told by Sunil Gavaskar in the 1970s that you have to learn to finish every ball keeping your bat on the ground, only then you will get into that habit. His bat was in the wrong left hand. If she had caught it right-handed, she would not have had such a runout.”
