T20 World Cup: India pacer Kranti Gaud has asserted that the national team will head into the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup with a singular, familiar objective: of becoming champions once again. India are yet to win a Women’s T20 World Cup but go into the mega event, to be played from June 12 to July 5 in England, as current ODI World Cup champions.

India, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, had failed to make it to the knockouts of the last edition in 2024 in the UAE, and their best finish in their history of being in the competition came as runners-up in the 2020 edition in Australia.

"The mindset is the same as before - become the World Cup champion again and that's how we will approach it in the upcoming T20 World Cup," Kranti said exclusively to IANS on the sidelines of the 'Fancatchstic Chapter 2' event on Sunday.
