Former captain Mithali Raj reckons that India will take pleasure in a major edge over different groups, because the situations within the UAE resemble these discovered on residence soil. The girls’s T20 World Cup is ready to be performed within the UAE — Dubai and Sharjah — from October 3. The ICC moved marquee occasion from Bangladesh owing to the political unrest in that nation. “The UAE is, again, in very similar conditions, so we can say that, you know, our team has the advantage,” Mithali instructed Star sports activities.
However, the previous batter warned in opposition to complacency, emphasising that each group will arrive totally ready for showpiece occasion.
“But again, the World Cup means every team comes well prepared,” she added.
Despite reaching the finals of ICC occasions, together with a few senior World Cups, the Indian girls’s group is but to seize its maiden world title.
“The Indian women’s team, so far, hasn’t won, other than the Under-19 World Cup,” Mithali mentioned.
“I think I will definitely want the team to do well because, like everybody else, when we get into the World Cup, we want our team to win.” “As a broadcaster, I think I’ve just done the first stint for women’s cricket in the Asia Cup, and India lost the Asia Cup. I don’t know whether that’s lucky or not in that way!” she added.
India will open their marketing campaign in opposition to New Zealand on October 4 in Dubai.
Harmanpreet and Co have been clubbed alongside Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan and Sri Lanka in Group A.
