That\u2019s inspiration enough as we prepare to begin our campaign this time.&#8221;<br \/>&#8220;I still get goosebumps remembering that match as I think of my earlier years on the circuit and realise the kind of progress women\u2019s cricket has made. I have played in all the T20 World Cups so far \u2013 in fact I debuted in the format at the inaugural edition in 2009 \u2013 and have seen the pace of the game surge like anything,&#8221; Harmanpreet wrote further.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cdatainfo   id-r-component\" data-pos=\"26\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" lang=\"en\">\n<p>You\u2019ve been a motivation for us .

Though Australia go into the tournament as favourites, there is very little separating other teams, promising close matches and high-class performances.<br \/>India have made the final of ICC senior women\u2019s global events three times \u2013 the 50-over World Cups of 2005 and 2017 being the other occasions \u2013 and are hungry for that elusive title as they go to South Africa with high hopes and the confidence of having an outfit that can beat any team on its day.<br \/>&#8220;We have senior players as well as young guns like Shafali Verma and Richa Ghosh, who are fresh from the Indian team\u2019s victory at the Under-19 World Cup, play an attractive brand of cricket and now also have enough experience of top-class cricket. We have depth in batting and enough variety in bowling with Renuka Singh stepping up well in the pace department to do what is required against top teams,&#8221; added Harmanpreet.<br \/>&#8220;We have been preparing well too. We won the Asia Cup and silver in the Commonwealth Games in recent months. A home series against Australia in December further gave us the opportunity to test ourselves and try our combinations against a top side.&#8221;<br \/>&#8220;Though we lost the series 4-1, there were enough thrills in the series for the thousands who thronged the Mumbai stadiums. The attendance in those matches also reflected the growing attention the women\u2019s game has been able to attract in recent times,&#8221; said the Indian skipper<br \/>The support for women\u2019s cricket by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has been amazing over the years and the impending Women\u2019s IPL is surely going to take the game to the next level in India.<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n
