Team India now depends on Pakistan for the Women's T20 World Cup 2024. He wants Pakistan's victory against New Zealand, but not a big one. Because, even if this happens, the problems of the Indian team will increase. By the way, who put Team India in this trouble? The answer is SRH. You will say that what role does Kavya Maran's IPL team play in this? Actually, we are not talking about IPL franchise SRH but about those 3 Indian players whose names start with these three English letters.
SRH means Smriti, Richa and Harmanpreet. If seen, these three players are match winners in their own right. But, at present, these three are the major reasons for the crisis arising in the Women's T20 World Cup. Let us tell you why we are saying this. The reason behind the current difficult situation is the performance of these three players. If she misses one match, Smriti Mandhana seems lost in the rest of the matches. Richa Ghosh has also failed to leave her mark behind and in front of the wicket. At the same time, there has been a huge decrease in the efforts of Captain Harmanpreet.
Smriti Mandhana's bat played only against Sri Lanka in the Women's T20 World Cup 2024. In that match, he scored 50 runs in 38 balls, which included 5 boundaries. But, apart from that, not a single big inning was seen from his bat in the remaining 3 matches. In the matches against Australia, New Zealand and Pakistan, he scored so few runs that even taken together, only 25 runs remained half of the 50 runs scored against Sri Lanka. Not only this, he hit only 2 boundaries in these three matches. Which is 3 less than the total boundaries hit by his bat against Sri Lanka.
Wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh has the image of an explosive batsman. But, this image of hers was not visible in the Women's T20 World Cup, everything else was visible. Richa Ghosh has not scored even 20 runs in the 4 matches played so far. In 3 out of these 4 matches, she could not even touch double figures. At the same time, his repeated mistakes behind the wicket in the match against Australia have also played their full role in pushing Team India towards crisis.
It became clear once again that Harmanpreet's half-century scored against Australia in T20 never suits Team India. Harmanpreet has so far scored half-centuries against Australia in T20 5 times and the Indian team has lost all of them. The Sharjah match became the latest example of this, due to which Team India now has the support of Pakistan.
