Women's T20 WC: Our Aim Is To Do Well And Back Our Strength, Says Shafali Ahead Of Australia Clash
T20 World Cup: Ahead of facing defending champions Australia in the T20 Women's World Cup in Sharjah, India opener Shafali Verma said they will aim to do well and back their strength. India have won against arch-rivals Pakistan and Asian champions Sri Lanka in Group A after suffering a 58-run defeat against New Zealand in their opening match.
Shafali highlighted the importance of quick singles on large UAE grounds, adding that Smriti Mandhana's dominance against spinners is a positive sign for the team. “Yes, we have a good team right now and that's because we don't just go in predetermined. Whoever looks in good touch on that particular day, we just try to rotate the strike and let them play as many deliveries as possible. And yeah, she's (Smriti Mandhana) hitting the spinners quite well, so that's a positive sign," the opener told Star Sports.
"And we just try to give a good start to the team which in turn produces a good innings and ultimately we are able to put a good score on the board. So our aim is just to do well for our team and back our strength," she added.
