As the Indian men’s side will be playing the final game of the World Test Championship This week, the Indian women’s cricket team are all to set to participate in a historic one-off Test game against the English women in Bristol which is scheduled to start from this Wednesday. Apart from this game, the Indian women will also be playing three ODIs and many T20 internationals.
As per the PTI report, Indian women’s side coach Ramesh Pawar requested Indian men’s Test team vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane to interact with the women’s side to share his knowledge of playing in English conditions. With regards to this, the country’s women’s side vice-captain Harmapreet Kaur spoke about how Rahane is helping them to prepare for the upcoming challenge.
“He has tons of experience and he told us how to bat in England and what kind of approach we should have as a batter,” Kaur said before adding, “He also spoke about how we can divide our innings into parts and setting small goals for ourselves. We discussed a lot of things.”
Kaur has represented the Indian side in two test games in which she has picked nine wickets and she has one fiver in her kitty.
India Women have won their last three Tests, they have won all of them – two against England Women and one against South Africa Women. But, the last of those Tests was way back in November 2014.
