Muzumadar Seeks 'Women's Test Championship' Ahead Of One-off Red-ball Match Against SA

Amol Muzumadar: As India prepare for the one-off Test against South Africa, head coach Amol Muzumdar is focusing on the team’s potential for improvement across all facets of the game. Fresh off successive white-ball series sweeps —T20Is in Bangladesh and ODIs against South Africa — India carries significant momentum but remains mindful of the unique demands of Test cricket.

"We do have the momentum - we won in Bangladesh, we won against South Africa," Muzumdar acknowledged two days before the one-off Test match against South Africa. "They are different formats, but at the same time, we are trying to focus on every game as it comes. The demands [of playing a Test] are different. I think the team is up for it and I think as far as improvement is concerned, I think all three departments -- batting, bowling, and fielding, and fitness -- four departments [can improve]."

India's last Test match took place in December, where they secured a convincing eight-wicket win against Australia in Mumbai, following another successful one-off Test at home against England. Most top players also participated in the Senior Women's Inter-Zonal Multi-day Trophy in Pune in March-April, keeping their red-ball skills sharp. Despite only five days to prepare after the ODIs concluded on June 23, Muzumdar feels confident about the team's ability to switch formats seamlessly.
