Great Indian player and ICC Hall of Famer Diana Edulji believes that her former team can win the title of the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. Diana said that the Asian team had left everyone behind to win its first ODI World Cup on home ground in November and will now try to do the same in the shortest format in the 10th edition of the T20 World Cup starting in England and Wales on June 12.

India have shown their mettle in 20-over cricket before and even defeated six-time T20 World Cup champions Australia in the T20 series in Australia earlier this year. But according to Diana Edulji, she is worried about the team not performing consistently in the shortest format. “T20 is a completely different game, and the performance of teams depends on the contribution of every player, and I want the big players to perform well, and a total of 170-180 will be difficult,” Edulji told Olympic.com.

But we are good in the ODI format, in T20 it is a different game. We have young cricketers taking up the game. T20, I’m not sure, I saw in the last match against South Africa in Durban, that showed what our girls lack.” “The odds are against our girls, and it won’t take them time to adapt.

I am sure that in the times to come, we will see them making up for the shortcomings. We have proved to be a better team in ODIs and consistency (is important) in this shorter version. Girls will prove themselves that they are the best. We should hope for the best.” It is noteworthy that India has been placed in Group A in the T-20 World Cup, in which the team has to play Australia, Bangladesh, Netherlands, Pakistan and South Africa before the knockout stage.
