Brits confirmed her team used the loss to England as fuel, to full effect, against New Zealand.
“(The loss) didn’t sit well with me,” she continued.
“I didn’t even want to eat that night, and I overthought the process completely. But yeah, we put that in the past as quick as possible, and we said, we’ve got to move on to the next game.”
South Africa’s batting unit held up their end of the bargain, but their bowling brigade also played a role, restricting New Zealand for less than what they thought felt like par on the Indore pitch.
“I think it was a batting wicket,” said Brits.
“So, I think they were actually a bit short of runs. I definitely think maybe a 280 would have worked. I think it’s a good wicket. I think in the beginning, it was a bit more tacky, but I think our bowlers executed very, very well. I think they bowled great line and lengths and they put the pressure on.”
