Rana said her teammates had moved on quickly from the loss to South Africa and the focus had moved on to the sold out contest against Australia.
“That’s the beauty of the team, when things don’t go your way, it really defines everyone’s character, how they take that loss,” she added.
“Winning and losing are both part of the game sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. But what matters most is how the team bounces back together.
“We regroup, we study the match, plan how to improve, take the positives, and look forward to the next game. We don’t dwell on the loss; instead, we focus on how to tackle the next challenge better.”
