Navgire, who smashed the fastest fifty in the Women's T20 Challenge in May, got her maiden India call-up for the three-match T20Is. Off-spin all-rounder Hemalatha was recalled after two years on the back of a strong domestic season to be named in both the T20I and ODI squads for the England tour.
Nobody can fill Jhulan Goswami's shoes, her passion for cricket is unmatched: Harmanpreet Kaur
The 39-year-old, who is leading wicket-taker in international cricket in a career spanning more than two decades, is set to retire after the third and final ODI against England at Lord's on September 24. "She goes to every game with the same kind of passion which is unmatched, nobody can beat that," Harmanpreet said in a media interaction here on the eve of their departure for their white-ball series in England. Having made her debut under the captaincy of Jhulan in a match against Pakistan in the 2009 World Cup, Harmanpreet has some vivid memories of the legendary Indian pacer who has a world record 252 wickets to her name from 201 ODIs -- the only bowler with more than 200 wickets in the format.
Watch: Wasim Jaffer Trolls Pakistan With Hilarious Meme Post Asia Cup Loss To India
Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer has trolled the Pakistan cricket team post its loss to India in Asia Cup 2022. Notably, India defeated Pakistan by five wickets in a last-over thriller at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday. The match was a roller-coaster ride that saw both India and Pakistan dominating each other during different phases, however, they were India, who eventually managed to win the game as Hardik Pandya took them home with a 33 not off 17 balls that included a match-finishing six.
"Made One Mistake": Pakistan Legend Points Out Fault In Babar Azam's Captaincy Post Loss To India
India defeated Pakistan by five wickets in a last-over thriller at Dubai International Stadium on Sunday. The 2022 Asia Cup match between the arch-rivals went down to the wire but all-rounder Hardik Pandya showed nerves of steel to pull off the heist for the Indian team in chase of a 148-run target. Besides the crucial knock of Pandya, it was certainly the lack of proper planning from Pakistan skipper Babar Azam in the second innings that played a big role in his side's loss to India.
Experimental India Get Ready To Steamroll Hong Kong In Asia Cup
KL Rahul couldn't have wished for an easier opposition to get his rhythm back as a buoyant India get ready to steamroll minnows Hong Kong in their second and final group league game of the Asia Cup on Wednesday. The Group A match won't be more than a glorified net session for Rohit Sharma's men against a team, mostly comprising Pakistani and Indian expats, who otherwise are not good enough to play first-class cricket in either of the two nations.
Hardik Pandya 2.0: All-rounder emerges as India's most valuable player in T20Is
Hardik has often been criticised for not having played a role of an all-rounder when the team needed him the most. But since he made his comeback from injury to the national side in June this year, bowling again at full tilt, Hardik has emerged as a serious match-winner with both bat and ball ahead of the T20 World Cup in Australia. For many, he is the most valuable player in the Indian team currently.
Asia Cup: Experimental India get ready to steamroll Hong Kong
Hong Kong in their second and final group league game of the Asia Cup here on Wednesday. The Group A match won't be more than a glorified net session for Rohit Sharma's men against a team, mostly comprising Pakistani and Indian expats, who otherwise are not good enough to play first-class cricket in either of the two nations. After a hard earned victory over Pakistan in a last over thriller, scripted by Hardik Pandya, the focus against Hong Kong will be on batters and their adequate game time. Rahul, whose first T20I in 2022 was against Pakistan the other night, would want to come out all guns blazing and may take this opportunity to try an alternate batting approach at the onset, compared to what has been his style at the IPL. In T20Is, teams are going for impact performance and often a 20 ball 45 is of greater value than a 90 not out of 65 balls.
