Asia Cup provided us platform to test our limitations and try combinations: Harmanpreet Kaur
Despite the experimentation, the Indian team cruised to the summit clash without being challenged much, though it lost to Pakistan in the league stage. India will clash with on Sri Lanka in the final on Saturday for an unprecedented seventh trophy. "This (Asia Cup) is such a platform where you can test your limitations, what type of cricket you want to play and that's what we done in this tournament, always testing ourselves, putting us into pressure," Harmanpreet said on the eve of the title-clash. "We tried a lot of combinations because we have to do those things as the World Cup is around the corner." Harmanpreet said their focus after stepping on to Bangladesh soil was to unearth future match-winners. "When we came to Bangladesh we discussed that every game we have to look for different match winners, we didn't want to depend on one or two players. We wanted everyone to step up and win the game for the team and I am really happy that we are getting different match winners," she said. "The most important thing is to stay positive and keep thinking what you can do better for the team. I don't feel we need to think about too many things, just stay positive."
