Known for her dynamic batting and innovative switch hits, the 23-year-old is keenly aware that this tournament represents an opportunity to consolidate her reputation on the global stage.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Litchfield has been a standout performer in 1 and bilateral cricket, with her 119-run innings against India in last year\u2019s Women\u2019s Cricket World Cup1 semifinals. But, she is yet to find the consistency in T20Is.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI have been speaking to Moon (Beth Mooney), speaking to Midge (Alyssa Healy) and even Pez (Ellyse Perry) about how they go about it. Last T20 World Cup, I was a bit further down the (batting) order, and T20I cricket is tough sometimes, especially when you're starting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"(I am trying to) learn a few tricks there and also just to know how to put an innings together in the T20 format. It's a bit of a different art to the 50-over (ODIs), so I am trying to learn on the go and I am really excited for the challenge,\u201d Litfield told ICC Digital.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
While Litchfield admits her preference is to open at the T20I level. In-form Mooney and Georgia Voll occupy the top spots, meaning Litchfield is now entrusted with batting at No.3.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cAnd I find a lot of freedom in that role because I've got the likes of Georgia Voll, Beth Mooney and Ellyse Perry kind of either side of me. So I know that we bat so deep and it allows me the freedom to come out and play the way I want to play and take the game on, which is what we ask for as a team,\u201d she added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
