Have High Hopes From Team To Do Well Despite Amanjot And Kashvee's Absence, Says Amita
T20 World Cup: Chief selector Amita Sharma admitted that replacing injured seam-bowling all‑rounders Amanjot Kaur and Kashvee Gautam was a difficult task, but stressed that the hopes are still high from the Indian team to perform well at the upcoming Women’s T20 World Cup, to be played in England from June 12 to July 5.
India managed just two wickets in the Power-play in the 4-1 series loss to South Africa, and with the duo unavailable, it means uncapped pacer Nandni Sharma has been given a call-up to a bowling line-up which now has a slightly inexperienced look.
“On the tour of South Africa, initially the bowling department lacked a little bit as we weren’t able to pick wickets upfront. In the matches which you all must have seen, their one batter (Laura Wolvaardt) was making all the runs, and we have tried to strengthen the bowling department by adding two bowlers.
