Harmanpreet Kaur’s problem is big! (PC-PTI)
India and Bangladesh will clash in the 23rd match of the Women’s T20 World Cup. This match will be held in Manchester which Team India must win at any cost. Before this match, a big question has been raised on Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur. Harmanpreet Kaur is not able to play freely in this tournament due to which Team India is suffering losses somewhere. This is the reason why former fast bowler Shikha Pandey has advised him to stop thinking about wickets and focus on aggressive play.
How is Harmanpreet Kaur’s batting a cause of concern for Team India?
Shikha Pandey in Jiostar’s ‘Game Plan’ program Harmanpreet Kaur Expressed concern over his batting. Shikha Pandey said that Harmanpreet Kaur should change her batting order so that her rhythm can come back. He suggested that Harmanpreet Kaur should bat at number four and Jemimah Rodrigues can bat at number 5.
Harmanpreet Kaur’s strike rate is low
Shikha Pandey said, ‘Harmanpreet Kaur’s low strike rate in the middle order is a matter of concern for Team India. If the wicket falls in the beginning then Yastika Bhatia comes to bat and Jemimah bats at number 5. Whatever form Harman is in, he should stop thinking about falling wickets. They should play aggressively. Once she gets into rhythm, big shots will also come out of her bat.
Harmanpreet Kaur’s performance in Women’s T20 World Cup
Harmanpreet Kaur has scored only 72 runs in 3 matches so far in this tournament. His average is 24 and strike rate is just 109.09. Harmanpreet Kaur has not hit a single six in the tournament so far.

In the top order, only Smriti Mandhana and Shefali Verma are scoring runs at a strike rate of more than 150.
