Mithali Raj controversy: Time to appoint Smriti Mandhana skipper in all formats, scrap dual captaincy formula

Firstpost  

Smriti Mandhana seems the best candidate to set in place a culture of respect, honesty and professionalism in this young team, and take it forward into the next two World Cup cycles. They reached the finals of the Women’s World Cup in 2017 after crashing and burning in 2013, and returned to the top four of the World T20 this year, after having last qualified in 2010. The logical thing to do would have been to hand the reins of the ODI team to Harmanpreet, with Mithali aged 35 and far from a certainty for the 2021 World Cup. Indian women’s cricket needs a systemic reboot: In an open letter to the BCCI I wrote after the 2017 World Cup Final, I outlined four steps that had to be taken to move the game forward.
