Harmanpreet Kaur Ready to Address Team India's Key Challenges Before Women's T20 WC 2024

During an appearance on Star Sports, India women skipper Harmanpreet Kaur opened up on the team's mental persistence ahead of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 in the UAE. The Indian Women's skipper stated that the team has turned its attention to finishing the task at hand after a few slip-ups in the last four or five overs.

"We have been working on mental strength for a long time. The last 3-4 overs are the most crucial. T20 cricket is not a small format; at the end of the day, you are playing 40 overs.

“In the last 4-5 overs, the team that is mentally strong wins the match. We have been focusing on this for a while. If we can remain mentally stable in those final 5 overs, we can execute what’s best for us. We are working on those aspects, and hopefully, we will overcome this hurdle in the tournament,” Harmanpreet Kaur said.

The ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024 had to be moved out of Bangladesh after they were announced as the initial hosts. Ever since the unrest-like situation erupted in Bangladesh after Sheikh Hasina 's resignation as the Prime Minister, the ICC has been looking to move the tournament out of the region, citing security issues. After taking part in a few warm-up matches, Team India open their campaign on October 04, 2024, against New Zealand. The Harmanpreet-led side will lock horns with arch-nemesis, Pakistan , on October 06, 2024.
