Mumbai, Jan 1 (CRICKETNMORE):  India Women's cricket team captain Mithali Raj says she reads books to get rid of match pressure.

"When you are on the field, and everyone is looking up to you and the entire team to bring back the trophy, (then) it is not just about the game. So, it is necessary for us to stay focussed... and we all have our own ways to ensure we give our best on the field," Mithali said on Shah Rukh Khan's TV show show "TED Talks India Nayi Soch".
