Talking about Sunday, Chauhan said in a press release by ICC, “It's an honour to be performing at the Women's World Cup and I am really looking forward to the big day. With India in the final and the stands packed with enthusiastic fans, I'm sure the atmosphere will be electric, and it will be a day all of us will remember for long.”

India vs South Africa

India had a strong run on their way to the World Cup final. They started the tournament with a comfortable win over Sri Lanka and followed it up with another victory against Pakistan.

However, their setback in the group stage came against South Africa, who handed India their first defeat.

Later, India suffered another loss against Australia despite scoring 330 runs. A third narrow defeat left India in a must-win position against New Zealand, where they bounced back strongly.

Rain affected their final group game against Bangladesh, which ended in a washout with India in control of the chase.

In the semi-final, India pulled off a remarkable performance, knocking out Australia and reaching the final.

Talking about facing South Africa, captain Harmanpreet Kaur told the media in the pre-match press conference, “No doubt they played very well, even though their start was not that good. Even after that, the way they came back to this tournament is outstanding to watch. I think it's a very balanced side. We know that they have a good bowling attack, and at the same time, there is a lot of depth in batting. But our team has also got a lot of positives. I think tomorrow's match is going to be very interesting. We are mentally and physically preparing ourselves for that level, and hopefully, we will enjoy ourselves tomorrow.”
