ICC Women’s T20 World Cup: The Indian men’s cricket team won the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 title this year. The Men in Blue have achieved this feat under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, now the same is expected from the Women in Blue i.e. the Indian women’s cricket team. Less than a month is left for the ICC T20 Women’s World Cup to begin. The Indian women’s cricket team under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur is fully prepared for this Women’s T20 World Cup and has been selected to play in it.
Can the Indian women’s cricket team win the T20 World Cup?
For this Women’s T20 World Cup to be held in the United Arab Emirates from October 3, the Indian women’s cricket team is expected to do a feat like Rohit Sharma and company. Harmanpreet’s army, which has not won a single title in the history of Women’s T20 World Cup so far, can end the title drought this time, but whether Harmanpreet’s team is fully prepared to win this event, this is the biggest question.
Indian women’s cricket team looks balanced
The ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 was to be held in Bangladesh, but has been shifted to UAE amid political upheaval there. In this World Cup to be held in the United Arab Emirates, Team India’s women are going to start their mission against New Zealand from October 4. The Indian women’s cricket team has been selected for this tournament recently. If we look at the squad, the Indian women’s team looks quite balanced.
There is variety in the team from batting to bowling and all-rounders
Talking about the team playing under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Shefali Verma, Jemima Rodrigues as well as captain Harmanpreet Kaur herself strengthen the batting, along with them there are Dayalan Hemalatha, wicketkeeper-batsman Yastika Bhatia and Richa Ghosh. Apart from these, the team has all-rounder players like Deepti Sharma, Pooja Vastrakar and Shreyanka Patil. The main bowlers in the team are Sanjana Sajeevan, Renuka Thakur, Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy, in such a situation the team looks quite balanced, but now it has to be seen how this team performs in the World Cup.
