The performance of the Indian women’s cricket team in the T20 World Cup 2024 being played in the UAE has not been anything special so far. In its very first match, the Indian team had to face a crushing defeat at the hands of New Zealand. New Zealand defeated India by 58 runs. After this, even though Team India defeated Pakistan in its second match, there was no significant improvement in its net run rate. This is the reason that now New Zealand’s defeat against Australia has dealt a big blow to Team India’s hopes of reaching the next round.

To reach the semi-finals, India will have to win both its remaining matches by a big margin. However, it will not be so easy for the team because one of its remaining 2 matches has to be played against defending champion Australia. Australia is at the top of Group A with 4 points. Pakistan is at the second position while New Zealand is at the third position. India is at the fourth position. Sri Lanka is at the last position.

Big update came for India

Meanwhile, a good news for India is that captain Harmanpreet Kaur has become fully fit to play in the next match. Indian vice-captain Smriti Mandhana gave this big information before the next match against Sri Lanka in the Women’s T20 World Cup. Mandhana told reporters that Harman is fine and will play tomorrow’s match. However, no information has been revealed yet about the fitness of all-rounder Pooja Vastrakar, who did not play the match against Pakistan.

The suspense over Puja continues

Mandhana said that the medical team is working on Pooja. Information about her will be available only tomorrow. Mandhana has not been able to play as expected in the tournament so far. India now has to play against Sri Lanka, which defeated it in the Asia Cup final. Apart from this, the match against Australia is still pending. Mandhana said that the conditions here are very different from what they had thought. The Indian team is trying to create a balance. The batsmen will have to play smartly.
