Women’s ODI WC: We’re On The Right Track, Now It’s About The Big Stage, Says Charlotte Edwards
Cricket World Cup: England head coach Charlotte Edwards believes her team has found the right balance heading into the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025, insisting that recent performances have shown they are “on the right track” as they prepare for their opener against South Africa in Indore on Friday.
“The players are really responding well, certainly to a slight change of style,” Edwards was quoted by ESPNCricinfo as saying. “Hopefully, we’ve seen the results over the last four games, which have been really positive. We’re not getting carried away, don’t worry, but we know that we’re on the right track and we’re tracking really well moving into the first game.”
England have enjoyed a strong build-up, winning all four warm-ups in Abu Dhabi and Bengaluru, including a 153-run thrashing of co-hosts India and a four-wicket win against defending champions Australia. Edwards stressed the team had taken confidence from not just the results but also the manner of play. “There’s never a friendly against an international opposition, so I think we’ve taken a lot of confidence, not necessarily around the result, but the way we’ve played. I feel we’re really nicely placed.”
