India batter Jemimah Rodrigues stated the squad aims to win the 2025 Women's ODI World Cup to honor veterans who built the foundation for women's cricket in the nation. Rodrigues spoke after India secured their second consecutive tournament victory with an 88-run win over Pakistan at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday. She praised the leadership transition from Mithali Raj and Jhulan Goswami to current captains Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana.

Rodrigues noted challenging pitch conditions in Guwahati and Colombo required batting adjustments. The team focuses on staying present and creating their internal environment amid tournament pressure. Former captain Mithali Raj highlighted fast bowler Kranti Gaud's rapid adaptation to international cricket after earning Player of the Match honors with figures of 3-20 against Pakistan. India faces South Africa in Visakhapatnam on Oct. 9 before meeting defending champion Australia on Oct. 12.
