    Anjum Chopra Surprised By India's Number Three Dilemma In Batting Line-up

    By IANS News October 16, 2024 • 17:44 PM View: 1097
    T20 World Cup: From the time Amol Muzumdar took over as India women’s head coach last year, India tried out six different players at number three spot in T20Is. With no one claiming the spot as theirs’, especially after Yastika Bhatia was injured, it zeroed on captain Harmanpreet Kaur to bat at number three in 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup.

    But the confusion just didn’t end there. In games against New Zealand and Sri Lanka, Harmanpreet came out to bat at number three. Against Pakistan and Australia, Jemimah Rodrigues, who was slotted in at number five, was promoted to bat at three.

    Former India captain Anjum Chopra termed the roulette around the side’s number three batter as ‘bizarre’ and felt it affected both Harmanpreet and Jemimah. “Absolutely bizarre. I didn't think that that Indian team would actually be in such a conundrum. I just question, ‘why?’ I'm not questioning the team management, but I'm just questioning the scenario which I see when I sit in the commentary box or when I sit at home and watch the Indian team play - like why cause such confusion around, and what is the need for it?”
