Mithali: Youngsters given ample game time, we now know where they fit in team ahead of WC

The Hindu  

Indian captain Mithali Raj feels youngsters like Shafali Verma and Richa Ghosh have shown that they have the ability to compete at the highest level and the last few series have helped the team to figure out its composition ahead of women's ODI World Cup next month. "The talent that we've got in the last year, we've tried some young talent in the squad, and most of them have shown that they have the ability to play at this level like Richa, Shafali, we have Meghna Singh in the seamers, Pooja Vastrakar," Raj said on the second day of the captains’ opening media conferences. The India captain said she has advised the players who are set to make their debut in the World Cup to not pile up the pressure and enjoy the big stage. "The only advice I would tell the young players is enjoy the big stage because if you pile up the pressure you may not be playing the best that the team and you would want to do in the World Cup."
