England Women's Player of the Summer: Amy Jones
Amy Jones (England Women's Player of the Summer): "Yeah, I loved the new role. West Indies went better for me. But there will be highs and lows and you have to keep learning. Enjoyed it.
It's a bit different. I think India were a huge challenge and we have enjoyed that challenge. That's what you want as a player. To be tested. Enjoyed that challenge.
I think the biggest thing is the mindset. Looking ahead at the World Cup and if it's my job, it will be about adapting to different bowlers and trusting my game. Keep watching the ball and play to my strengths."

Nat Sciver-Brunt (England Women Captain): "I think we did really well to stay in that game for that long. The wickets at the end certainly did cost us the game. We wanted a set batter at the end. We weren't as disciplined as we wanted to be in terms of our bowling.
I think it's a combination of everything. The engagement we have in our practice sessions is brilliant. In training we are absolutely fine but to do the same in the match gets difficult for us I think.
I guess there are certain people in the field who always keep the energy up there. Senior members in the side often carry the team together. We try to do the same in the match whatever we do in training. We will try to work on it.
(On the combination of the side) I guess we don't have the luxury of having too many all-rounders in our side. The batting department is doing well. My plan is to bowl by the World Cup which will certainly give us the option of a 6th bowler. We will learn from it as we are using five bowlers as of now.
First of all, they are a world class side. In Indian conditions, they will be right up their. Their fielding has been top notch throughout the series but we were not even close to their level. They have shown us how much of a difference that can make. Their bowling department was sensational as well. Congratulations to them."

Harmanpreet Kaur (POTM & POTS & India Women Captain): "Yeah, it's a great moment for us. I'm really happy with how we have played in both series. We are gelling well and credit to the support staff and all the girls.
I mean they have been really great on and off the field. Not only them, everyone in the field. Whenever they are getting opportunities, they are putting their hands up. Everyone are executing themselves really well.
Definitely. More than that, they have a good experience in WPL. We thought if we can give them the opportunity, they can do well for the country as well. Really happy with how Kranti and all of us bowled today. Winning the series, it means a lot to us.
Credit goes to our fielding coach. He has been working really hard. At first, it was frustrating because we were putting the work in the camps but we couldn't execute that on the field. But now, we are able to put pressure when we are fielding.
It was a very important match for us. I'm working really hard and I know I will step up when my team needs it. I want to dedicate this innings to my dad. He wasn't asking for it but I know he was waiting for it. When I wasn't scoring runs, I was feeling a bit pressure but I had other responsibilities as well. But I'm happy with how we have performed today and won the series.
The wicket was good to bat on. We just needed to keep working hard. We got few in the match but we weren't able to take it. We were waiting for those opportunities. We know Deepti would step up whenever we want. She picked up Nat Sciver-Brunt's wicket.
This series was important for us ahead of the World Cup. Before it, we have three matches against Australia. We will look to play in the same way and carry it forward in the World Cup."
