Richa Ghosh Can Be A Good Top-order Player: Amol Muzumdar
ODI World Cup: Despite the three-run loss to Australia in the second ODI, India head coach Amol Muzumdar heaped rich praise on wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh, who scored a career-best 96 off 117 balls in the match while batting at number three for just the second time in the format.
Richa is generally known for her finishing skills in both ODIs and T20Is, but this series against Australia has given her a new role – of batting in the top-order, something which she has not done before. At the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday, Richa was cautious initially, making 37 runs in 60 balls.
She then accelerated very well, making 59 runs in 57 balls and hitting ten fours, including getting her fifty in 74 balls. Though Richa struggled with cramps, she wasn’t letting them come in the way of her producing a memorable knock, though she missed her first ODI century by just four runs as Phoebe Litchfield took a superb catch at cover.
