Currently, BCCI is planning to include more matches for women cricketers at the domestic level. Harmanpreet said: "Earlier, there were not many matches for us at domestic level but I think the BCCI is working on it and we would definitely get good quality of games."
The attacking right-handed batswoman, who sealed a final berth for India by playing a magnificent innings of 171 not out off just 115 balls against Australia in the semi-finals of ICC women's cricket World Cup in England, said that the India 'A' concept will help young women cricketers as they will get more matches that will provide them a chance to prepare better for the international stage.
Without doubt, life has changed for her and the rest of the team. "The comparison between men's and women's cricket is over. I think now everybody wants to watch cricket be it men's or women's. I think it's a great achievement for us. Now there is more responsibility on us.
"We will carry that momentum and keep performing," Harmanpreet said.
