Joint press conference of captains
Before the World Cup, a joint press conference of the captains of all the teams was held. Indian women’s cricket team captain Harmanpreet Kaur also participated in it. In this press conference, the teams talked about their ideas and preparations. This time the Indian team is also going to enter the field with strong intentions and its aim is to win the World Cup once again. India also has to play practice matches against West Indies and England before its campaign, which will give the team an opportunity to further strengthen its preparations.
Harmanpreet’s funny answer on retirement question
During the press conference, a journalist asked Harmanpreet Kaur whether this would be her last T20 World Cup. Harmanpreet first smiled on this question and then she answered in a very natural manner. He said, “Why?” Hearing his answer, everyone present there laughed. When the journalist said that he just wanted to get information, Harmanpreet again asked jokingly, “Do you think I should stop?” On this the journalist immediately said that no, it is not so. After this Harmanpreet replied, “Then why are you asking this question?” His light but direct answer made the atmosphere a bit serious, but soon the people present there started smiling. The entire press hall was filled with laughter for some time.
