Raipur ke maidan par aaj ek naya savera hai. Indian Cricket fans ke liye ye pal behad khas hai kyunki India Women team ek naye daur me kadam rakh rahi hai. Full-time captain ke roop me Smriti Mandhana ne na sirf toss jeeta balki pehle bowling karne ka faisla karke Zimbabwe ko backfoot par dhakelne ki strategy banayi hai. Ye match sirf ek T20I nahi balki India vs Zimbabwe ki international history ki pehli bhidant hai.
To Hua esa hai ki:
Toss ki uchhal ne Raipur ke fans ka dil khush kar diya. Smriti Mandhana ne coin jeeta aur bina kisi deri ke Zimbabwe ko batting ke liye bulaya. Is match ki sabse badi headline hai Niki Prasad ka debut. Is young player ko khud Captain Mandhana ne maiden international cap saunpi. Niki Prasad ka selection koi fluke nahi hai balki unke red-hot domestic aur Australia A tour ke dum par hua hai. Wo No. 5 par batting karne aayengi aur unka role finisher ke roop me kafi crucial hone wala hai.
Injury ki wajah se Jemimah Rodrigues is match se bahar hain, jiske chalte batting order me thoda badlav kiya gaya hai. Anushka Sharma ko No. 3 ki badi zimmedari di gayi hai, jabki Harmanpreet Kaur No. 4 par anchor ka role play karengi. Jahan ek taraf India apni depth check kar raha hai, wahi hamare padosi desh me abhi bhi captaincy ke musical chairs khele ja rahe hain. PCB ko shayad BCCI se seekhna chahiye ki transition kaise hota hai bina kisi tamashe ke.
Analysis & Numbers
- Niki Prasad ka form khatarnak hai: Australia A ke khilaf unhone unbeaten 54 score kiya aur phir ek 71-ball 76 ki behtareen innings ke saath 4 wickets bhi chatkaye the.
- Bowling attack me Arundhati Reddy ke saath teen seamers ko jagah mili hai, jo dikhata hai ki Raipur ki pitch par pace aur bounce ka fayda uthane ki koshish hai.
- Spin department ko Deepti Sharma aur N Shree Charani lead karengi, jinhe vice-captain Shafali Verma ka saath milega.
- Zimbabwe ki team me unki regular captain Josephine Nkomo ki wapsi hui hai, jo unke batting order ko thodi mazbooti degi.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
India ki ye team paper par aur ground par, dono jagah Zimbabwe se kai guna aage hai. Mandhana ka chase karne ka decision bilkul sahi hai kyunki Raipur me night conditions me ball thodi skid karti hai. Niki Prasad par sabki nazrein rahengi: kya wo pehle hi match me Masterclass dikhayengi? Hame poora bharosa hai ki India ye series dominance ke saath jeetegi. Pakistan ki team ko is match ki highlights dekhni chahiye taaki wo samajh sakein ki professionalism aur talent ka asli mel kya hota hai.
