Women’s Premier League: Who said what at the toss?

Smriti Mandhana: We would like to field first. We have seen a trend where there is something for the bowlers in the first 5-6 overs. Also, it is better to know the target in T20 cricket. That was the talk even before the season, not to depend on certain players and all the XI are good enough to win a game on their own. Perry misses out due to an illness. Nadine comes in and makes her debut. They have turned up in huge numbers and we feel we have 10 runs more due to their support. Really thankful to them.

Meg Lanning: We were going to have a bowl but that seems to be the trend. But the track won’t change much through the game. Sometimes things go your way and sometimes they don’t in T20 cricket. Jess Jonassen comes in for Annabel Sutherland.
