Indian Women's Team forward Sharmila Devi wants to make the most of every opportunity she is getting with the senior side.

As per a press statement from Hockey India, Sharmila said,  "I played my first match for the senior side in 2019 and ever since then, I have been getting fantastic exposure with the team and I am happy to receive these opportunities and want to make each one count." She further said, "The Indian Team was playing against Argentina after nearly four years. The senior players who had previously played against Argentina in 2017 recalled how strong a team they are and how important it is for us to execute our plans perfectly." She also praised the efforts of Hockey India in ensuring the tour was well organised despite these trying circumstances due to the pandemic.

In India's recent tour to Argentina, she scored twice for India in low-scoring games that proved crucial for the team against a top-quality side like Argentina who are ranked No.2 in the world. She also highlighted the area which they will be working on when the core group returns to National Camp on 14 February 2021.
