Women T20 World Cup: The mega event of women's cricket, T20 World Cup 2024, is going to be held in UAE this time. For this, the squad of the Indian women's cricket team has been announced, and Harmanpreet Kaur has been selected as the captain, while Smriti Mandhana has been given the responsibility of vice-captaincy. The right mix of youth and experienced players can be seen in the team, due to which Indian cricket fans are expecting big things from this World Cup.

Venue swap:

This time the World Cup was to be held in Bangladesh, but in view of the political tension, the ICC has decided to organize it in the UAE. The event can be spectacular due to the presence of excellent facilities and cricket stadiums in line with international standards in the UAE.

Major changes and challenges in the team:

With the announcement of the Indian team, some important things have come to the fore. Yastika Bhatia and Richa Ghosh have been selected as two wicketkeepers in the team. However, the fitness of Shreyanka Patil and Yastika Bhatia is a major concern. Shreyanka suffered a finger injury during the Asia Cup and Yastika also got injured in the first match of the Bangladesh tour. Their participation in the T20 World Cup will depend on the fitness of both of them.

Key players of the team:

The responsibility of batting for the Indian team will be on the shoulders of Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Shefali Verma, and Jemima Rodriguez. These players have previously led the Indian team to victory in important matches. In the last World Cup, the Indian team reached the final under the captaincy of Harmanpreet, but had to face defeat at the hands of Australia there. This time Harmanpreet and her teammates will play an important role in the performance of the team.
