Women's WC: Richa Ghosh Backs Top-order Despite Failure, Says We Will Stick To Our Plans
ODI World Cup: India's three-wicket defeat to South Africa in a thrilling encounter in the ICC Women's ODI World Cup, which saw lower-order batters twice change the fortunes of their teams, has further exposed two problem areas for Harmanpreet Kaur's team that may thwart the hosts in their avowed aim of going all the way to their maiden title.
Thursday's defeat to South Africa further revealed the vulnerabilities of India's top-order batting and the limited bowling resources as the two Achilles heels that could bring the juggernaut to a grinding halt.
Though wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh, whose brilliant knock of 94 off 77 balls and a no-holds-barred assault by Sneh Rana in a cameo of 33 off 24 helped India post a competitive total of 251 all out, supported the top-order batters and said they would come back strongly in the next set of matches, the problem seems a bit deep-rooted and needs immediate attention.
