Shafali's Stellar Comeback Keeps Her In Contention For ODI World Cup, Confirms Head Coach
ODI World Cup: Shafali Verma's stellar T20I comeback in England has put her in contention for this year's ODI World Cup in India, head coach Amol Mazumdar confirmed after their 3-2 series win at Edgbaston.
After being dropped following India’s group-stage exit at the T20 World Cup last October, Shafali returned to the national setup for the T20I series against England. She made a strong case for herself, finishing as the second-highest run-scorer in the series, just behind opening partner Smriti Mandhana.
Shafali amassed 176 runs at an average of 35.20 and an impressive strike rate of 158.55, with scores of 20, 3, 47, 31, and a blistering 75 off 41 balls. Her two highest scores came in narrow defeats at The Oval and Edgbaston, where England edged India with last-ball wins.
