Talking about the recent form of Team India has been fantastic. They defeated England in England in the T20 series and ODI series 2-1. It was a complete dominating performance from Team India under the leadership of captain Harmanpreet Kaur and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana.
Speaking to the Hindustan Times, Mithali said, “There is an opportunity here. We have a strong core, and playing at home is an advantage if we manage the pressure well. If we can hold our nerve, trust our game, and use the home conditions smartly, we will give ourselves a real chance.”
