“You know what before this World Cup they promised me. We’ll do it for you. Last year they said we could not because in 2022 we were not able to qualify for the semifinals. Harman and Smriti came to my room in midnight and they said we don’t know if you will be there or not next time, we don’t know, but we’re going to win the trophy for you, and finally they did it, and that’s what made me emotionally break down,” said Jhulan to the broadcasters
