“It’s a new situation for everyone. India have never played the World Cup before. This is different ball game altogether,” Dennerby said.
“It’s a unique chance to show everyone that we have prepared well and will not allow anyone to run over us.” The prestigious tournament will be held in Bhubaneswar, Margao in Goa, and Navi Mumbai from October 11-30.
The Kalinga Stadium will host three pool matches of India.
“When you are on the field, everything is held back behind and you just have to focus on the game. That’s what the girls need to do.
