The 10th edition of Women’s T20 World Cup is going to start from 3rd October in UAE. The Indian team’s journey in the tournament will begin on October 4 against New Zealand. Team India will face Pakistan on October 6. Last time when the two teams met in this tournament, India won by 7 wickets. Jemimah Rodriguez contributed significantly to this. Before the start of the T20 World Cup, he narrated the story of that match, when everyone was telling him to beat Pakistan at any cost. One watchman even said that ‘Whether the World Cup is won or not, you guys don’t want to lose to Pakistan.’
Jemima was nervous before the Pakistan match
India-Pakistan matches are very tense in any sport. That’s why players become experts. Something similar happened to Jemimah Rodriguez during the 2023 World Cup. She was also out of form in the tournament and before the match against Pakistan everyone was calling for her win. She was very nervous in such a situation. To relieve her nervousness, she went for a walk.
When he came to bat the next day, he played a historic innings. Pakistan was given a target of 150 runs. Chasing it, the team lost its first wicket in the sixth over. Jemima then came in to bat and led the team to victory with an unbeaten innings of 58 off 38 balls. However, this time Jemima has been given responsibility not at number 3 but in the middle order. How he performs in such a situation remains to be seen.
What did Jemima say about her role?
Jemima can be seen batting at number 5 in the T20 World Cup in UAE. He described this role in the team as quite different and complex. He believes that batting at number 5 is very different, as the situation is different every time. Sometimes a partnership is needed and sometimes a big hit is needed to maintain the team’s momentum. That is why she is trying to bat more positively and aggressively than before.
Jemima is troubled by a finger injury
Jemimah Rodriguez was troubled by her finger injury until a few days ago. However, she was practicing under the supervision of a medical team. It is hoped that he will be fully fit for the tournament. Let us tell you that the Indian team has not yet managed to win the Women’s T20 World Cup title. Last time the Indian team came close to the trophy and crashed out of the tournament. Australia beat Australia by 5 runs in a thrilling semi-final match. However, this time captain Harmanpreet Kaur has expressed hope for victory by calling it the best team ever.
