Mithali Raj, the captain of India’s women’s cricket team, believes her team is “more than capable” of winning the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup. Mithali added that after coming close on two occasions, it is now “just a matter of doing it.”
India kicks off their campaign in the mega event, which will be played across six venues in New Zealand beginning March 4, with a game against arch-rival Pakistan on March 6.
It’s just a matter of doing it; now it’s a matter of winning the trophy, and the impact would be incredible. I can only imagine what effect it would have “Mithali stated in her ICC column.
The feelings of disappointment and heartbreak I experienced after I missed out on a chance to win the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup in 2017 will linger for the rest of my life,” said the captain.
However, after the team’s 63-run defeat to New Zealand in the fourth WODI on Tuesday, Raj was candid in admitting that the team’s bowling is a major concern heading into the ICC Women’s World Cup.
India is now 0-4 down in the five-match series, with Mithali’s bowling attack failing to defend 270 and 279 runs in the second and third games, respectively. In addition, the team failed to chase 276 in the first game and a mammoth 192 in 20 overs in the fourth game.
I’ve experimented with a few different seam and spin attack combinations. The bowling attack is a source of concern heading into the World Cup “Mithali stated this following the defeat at the post-match presentation ceremony.
