Women's T20 World Cup 2023: "Make The Changes Based On Who You Want To Play Against Australia" - Anjum Chopra Makes A Massive Statement On Indian Team

Indian Women’s Cricket Team has had a topsy-turvy T20 World Cup 2023 so far. The Women in Blue are placed 2nd in Group B where they have won 2 matches out of 3. India’s next match is against Ireland on 20th February. A win for India would seal the semi-final spot whereas Ireland would be aiming to pull off an upset.

It won’t be wrong to say that the defeat against England was a reality check to the mighty Women in Blue, where they lost the match by 11 runs while chasing 152. The problem with India is that they don’t have fire-power present at the back end of the innings which ruins all the hard work of the top order and goes into vain.

Anjum Chopra on India’s selection

Anjum Chopra was seen speaking on her YouTube channel and made some interesting comments on the selection.

“India has made changes in every game. Harleen Deol went out and Devika Vaidya came in and then Devika Vaidya went out and Shikha Pandey came in. Make the change based on who you want to play against Australia because the expectation is that you will play Australia in the semi-finals,” said Anjum Chopra.

“If the Indian team wins against Ireland, how will you want to play against Australia – an extra spinner or an extra seamer? Conditions – the Newlands ground. You know the conditions, so make your XI against Ireland accordingly,” she added.

Anjum Chopra suggested changes for the game against Ireland.

“The team management and captain have that choice. If I have the choice, I will bring Devika Vaidya in for this game against Ireland. Yes, get Devika Vaidya back in place of Shikha Pandey because you get the leg-spin and batting option, and I feel you will need an additional spinner on the Newlands ground,” said Anjum Chopra.

“Renuka Singh Thakur bowled a very good spell. It will be a challenge for her as similar conditions might not be there against Ireland. Pooja Vastrakar should get a little more bowling so that she gets her rhythm. It would be better if the left-arm spinners find their rhythm or else Deepti Sharma is seen bowling alone,” she added.
