Inter zonal t20s

Inter Zonal T20s: Vaishnavi Sharma’s inclusion in the Indian team for the ongoing T20I series against Sri Lanka was a recognition of her strong domestic performances by the Amita Sharma-led selection committee, head coach Amol Muzumdar said on Thursday.

Vaishnavi has made a promising start to her T20I career by picking 2-32 in the second T20I against Sri Lanka after debuting in the series opener in Visakhapatnam, where she conceded only 16 runs in her four overs.

“I think she responded really well to what we had asked for. Credit to her that she comes from the under-19s. Her exploits in the under-19 were probably rewarded, and also her domestic performance. I would like to stress here that domestic performance was rewarded by the selectors. So real credit to them,” said Muzumdar in the pre-match press conference.
