I think the one position India needs to improve is the No. 3 batting position: Mithali Raj
Let’s know what Mithali said Mithali Raj (Image Source: Twitter) The Indian women’s cricket team has lost to Sri Lanka by 8 runs in the final of the Women’s Asia Cup 2024. On the other hand, after this defeat, a big statement has come from the former captain of the team, Mithali Raj. It is worth noting that after the Women’s Asia Cup, now the Indian team has to participate in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup to be held in October. So before the start of this multi-nation tournament, a big statement of Mithali Raj has come out. Mithali says that the area where the Indian team has to work before this big tournament is the number 3 batting position. Mithali Raj’s big statement came out Let us tell you that in a recent discussion with Star Sports, the former veteran batsman said – India is going to participate in the biggest ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in October. I think the area India should really focus on improving is the number 3 batsman position. They are still looking for the right batsman to go at number 3. They have tried D Hemalatha at this order and they have tried Uma Chhetri. Mithali further said- But ideally, this number should have such a batsman who can take forward the great start given by Shefali Verma and Smriti Mandhana. Also, the team needs to focus on other aspects of bowling, as this team is playing with only 5 bowlers. They probably need a sixth bowler, someone like an all-rounder who can bowl a few overs as well as bat. I think these are the areas India should improve on before taking part in the T20 World Cup.

For UAE, Kavisha Egodage took 2 wickets for 36 runs in 4 overs while Sameer Dharnidharka and Heena Hotchandani took 1 wicket each. UAE needs to score 202 runs in 20 overs to win the match Talking about the Indian women’s team, their performance has been very good in international cricket for some time now and the team would like to win this match as well. UAE cannot be taken lightly but the team is in a very difficult situation at the moment as they have to score more than 200 runs in 20 overs. Let us tell you, for the first time in India, the score of 200 runs has been crossed in international T20 cricket. Earlier, the Indian women’s team had scored 198 runs in 20 overs against England in 2018, losing four wickets. Not only this, in the T20 World Cup 2018, the team had scored 194 runs for 5 wickets against New Zealand. Earlier in this tournament, the Indian women’s team defeated the Pakistan team by 7 wickets in their first match. Now the Indian team would definitely want to win the match being played against UAE. The good thing for the Indian women’s team is that their bowlers are also in great form and they have the ability to win this match by getting UAE out as soon as possible. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?…
