ICC T20 Women’s World Cup: Today there will be a clash between India and Pakistan, Harmanpreet’s brigade will beat the opponents
In the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, under the leadership of captain Harmanpreet, the Indian team will start the tournament with a win against their arch-rivals Pakistan. Pakistan’s team will be led by Bismah Maroof in this match to be held at the Newlands ground in Cape Town. The great match between India and Pakistan will start at 6.30 pm.
This match between India and Pakistan is going to be very exciting. The Indian team would definitely like to avenge the Asia Cup defeat against the Pakistan team in South Africa. However, during the last five years, there has been a stark difference in the performance of both the teams. Pakistan’s women’s team fills water in front of Indian women’s team. At the same time, the teams of Australia and England are definitely performing well in this World Cup.
vice-captain Smriti Mandhana out
Indian vice-captain Smriti Mandhana is still recovering from a finger injury that will rule her out of the Women’s T20 World Cup opener against Pakistan on Sunday. Mandhana (26 years) was injured while fielding during the warm-up match against Australia earlier this week and she did not play in the second warm-up match against Bangladesh.
Will keep an eye on these players
With the absence of Smriti Mandhana in the team, more responsibility will be on the shoulders of skipper Harmanpreet. At the same time, Shefali Verma, the captain of the women’s team who recently won the Under-19 T20 World Cup title, is also eager to force the bowlers to chew iron gram on the basis of their batting in this match. A good inning is also expected from Jemimah Rodrigues.
Bowlers will also have responsibility
Deepti Sharma will have the dual responsibility of showing a strong game with both the ball and the bat. Renuka Singh is brimming with confidence and her performance will spell trouble for the Pakistan batsmen. The spinners will also have to show strong play and come back in form.
