Indian team captain Harmanpreet Kaur is known for her aggressive style and power-touching. Along with the captaincy of Mumbai Indians (WPL), she earns well from BCCI contracts and brand endorsements.

Former captain Mithali Raj believes that if India takes the rhythm in his favor by taking advantage of important occasions during the big matches in the upcoming women’s ODIs, then it can end the drought of the long -running title.

The host India will land as a strong contender to win the tournament with Australia and England in the next month’s World Cup. The Indian team led by Harmanpreet Kaur is looking for its first world title as it has missed the final of 50 -over format twice.

Mithali said to ‘ICC Digital’, “I think (India) needs to take advantage of those small occasions during big matches.” He said, “This is the balance that is between the claimant teams.” She tries to use those opportunities more and more in her favor and India needs to take advantage of those opportunities.

Mithali, who won India to the World Cup final in the year 2005 and 2017, believes that winning the title will have a revolutionary impact on women’s cricket in the country.

He said, “I think it will be a big deal. I mean this is such a thing that all the players, whatever bat, whoever wants to represent the country, would like to win the World Cup because India has not done so yet.

Mithali said, “Yes, we have reached close twice but have not been able to win the cup yet. Winning the World Cup on the home ground would be very good because it is a completely different platform. ”

In India’s recent limited overs tour of England, young Kranti Gaur and Mr. Charani made their mark, and the team won both T20 international and ODI series.

Mithali is particularly affected by the 22 -year -old fast bowler revolution. He said, “I was greatly influenced by Kranti Gaur’s talent in England.” Mithali said, “She has played WPL (Women’s Premier League) but does not have that much experience.”

The former Indian captain said, “But as a fast bowler she tries constantly and tries to take wickets, she is impressive and she (in England) has taken six wickets, so I would like to see her playing in the domestic World Cup.”

The Women’s World Cup is starting from 30 September in which India will start its campaign against co -host Sri Lanka.

After about one and a half months, the Women’s ODI Cup (Womens ODI World Cup 2025) is going to start. The tournament will run till 30 September-2 November, which India and Sri Lanka will be hosting together. The Indian team has so far reached the final of the ODI World Cup 2 times, but both times they had to face defeat. Now former captain of Team India Mithali Raj has given India the Gurumantra to wave India in the World Cup for the first time.

Team India gets Gurmantra

During the talks with ICC Digital, Mithali Raj said that Team India will have to take full advantage of small occasions in big matches. He says that the ability to convert small occasions into victory will create a big difference in the World Cup teams.

Mithali Raj said, “Other teams try to bring the match to the match by redeeming these small occasions. The Indian team will also have to capitalize on the same opportunities.”

2 World Cup final experience

Mithali Raj has the experience of playing 2 ODI World Cup final as captain. Under his captaincy, Team India played the finals of 2005 and 2017. Remembering 2005, the Indian team, which performed amazing throughout the tournament, had to face a big defeat of 98 runs against Australia in the final. When the turn of 2017 came, Team India had come very close to victory this time, but England defeated him by 9 runs and won the title.

On the possibility of winning the World Cup, Mithali Raj said, “If India becomes a champion then it will be a big and special moment. Every player who represents India wants to win the World Cup and no one has been able to do so till now. We came close to winning the trophy 2 times, but really he could not fulfill his dream of winning the trophy.”
