Harmanpreet Kaur’s Indian team is all set to make it a clean sweep by winning the fifth and final Women’s T20 International of the series. This will be an important part of India’s preparations for the T20 World Cup to be held in England in June-July next year. After the current series against Sri Lanka, the Indian team will play three T20 Internationals each in Australia and England before the World Cup.
The Indian team had to withdraw from the 2024 T20 World Cup. But he has since changed his style and adopted a more aggressive approach. In the first three matches of this series, the Indian bowlers performed well, with very little effort from the batsmen. However, the aggressive Shafali Verma has been in good form in these matches. India’s biggest concern is its fielding, in which the Indian team has been disappointed.
There have been many positives for the Indian team in this series. Fast bowler Renuka Singh Thakur has made a successful comeback in this format after a year’s layoff and the ever reliable Deepti Sharma has been consistently performing well. Left-arm spinner Vaishnavi Sharma has also performed to her potential. Shafali has impressed everyone with his batting. She has scored three fifties in four matches so far.
