Don’t Know Who Needs To Be Questioned If Fitness & Fielding Hasn’t Improved Yet, Says Anjum
T20 World Cup: A lot of preparatory work was put in by the Indian team think-tank in enhancing the fitness and fielding departments ahead of the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup in the UAE. But it did not produce the desired results, as India once again was found lacking in these departments.
In the T20 World Cup, where India made a group-stage exit, they dropped nine catches in four games, apart from misfields galore. Richa Ghosh was also not at her sharpest best as a wicketkeeper, and gave away lots of byes too. Seeing the fluctuating standard of fitness and fielding for the umpteenth time in a world event left former India captain Anjum Chopra unimpressed.
“For last 35 years, I've been hearing this fitness and fielding (is a work in progress). If you've not improved this as of now, then I don't know who needs to be questioned and how we need to address this because when I came into this Indian setup, when we were obviously not under the BCCI, we used to say, ‘Oh, we've got limited facilities and we are still improving our fitness and fielding’. Again, we are hearing that we are having a fitness and fielding camp (before World Cup).”
