Ahead of the India vs Pakistan match in the ongoing ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026, India captain Harmanpreet Kaur was asked about whether there would be handshakes on Sunday evening when these two teams will be up against each other at Edgbaston in Birmingham.
“Well, I think we are here for cricket, and we only talk about cricket; except for cricket, we don't talk about anything, and I don't even think about anything except cricket. Cricket has been our dream from day one, and we only talk about it. For tomorrow's game, we are thinking of it as just another game we are going to play,” Harmanpreet Kaur told the reporters in the pre-match press conference.

Highlighting the importance of the match, Harmanpreet Kaur further mentioned that she felt the pressure even as a spectator, but they are fortunate that they are among the very few people who are selected to become a part of the rivalry.
“I won’t say there’s no pressure; there is pressure. Since I started watching cricket as a supporter, I have felt that pressure, and now that we play, it’s even more. But at the same time, we always say that the more we enjoy this game, the better it is for us, because we are the lucky ones who are picked for this big occasion, and we just want to enjoy ourselves on the field,” the Indian skipper added.
