Despite India's loss in the finals of Women's T20 World Cup, Indian all-rounder Shikha Pandey on Tuesday said that she feels proud of her team.

Shikha in the mega event bagged seven wickets in five innings. In the final match, Shikha failed to leave a mark as she scored two runs from four balls.

"It has been a real privilege to have represented my country in @T20WorldCup and to have played in front of a packed MCG. Congratulations to @AusWomenCricket for their win," Shikha tweeted.

"So proud of this @BCCIWomen team. Met some incredible people and made some amazing memories," she added

This was India's first final in the Women's T20 World Cup.
