ICC Women's T20 World Cup: India begin campaign against Pakistan, hope to tick right boxes
The Shafali Verma-led side won the inaugural edition in Potchefstroom last month and the senior side, which is chasing an elusive ICC Trophy, will open their Women's T20 World Cup campaign at the other end of South Africa, in Cape Town on Sunday.Bunched in group B along with Pakistan, England, Ireland and West Indies, first up for the previous edition's runners-up are the neighbours marshalled by Bismah Maroof.While the storied battles between the two famed opponents spans over seven decades in men's cricket, it is relatively new among women with the first match between the two sides played in 2005. That said, the freshness of the rivalry takes nothing away from the intensity or spotlight surrounding it.
