Women’s T20 WC: ‘Harmanpreet At No.4, Jemimah At 5,’ Mithali Suggests Batting-order Tweak After India’s Loss
T20 World Cup: Former India captain Mithali Raj believes India should consider promoting captain Harmanpreet Kaur to number four after the team's six-wicket defeat to South Africa in the Women's T20 World Cup at Old Trafford on Sunday. While reflecting on India's missed opportunity, Mithali also praised left-arm spinner Shree Charani for her impactful spell that briefly swung the contest back in India's favour.
"It was a disappointing game for India because, had they won this, they would be on top of the table, and now they have no other choice but to beat Australia to get into the semi-finals. It was their game to win because it's a little tough road ahead. From batting order point of view, we haven't seen Harmanpreet bat that late at number five very often, so perhaps she can come in at number four and Jemimah at number five.
"Jemimah has played at number five before and scored a lot of runs there. By the time she comes in, she will most likely face the spinners, which is her strength. She can use her feet and plays the scoops and sweeps well. That could help build her confidence, get her back into rhythm and regain that momentum, with Harmanpreet batting ahead of Jemimah,” Mithali told JioStar.
