Edwards believes England remain on track for World Cup glory ICC Women's Cricket World Cup, 2025
England have two players holding onto the No.1 spot on the ICC Women's ODI Player Rankings , with skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt (batting) and spinner Sophie Ecclestone (bowling) both currently rated as the best in the world in their specific profession and the duo likely to play a major role in the side's race to this year's World Cup title. Edwards suggested the pair were in good shape ahead of England's World Cup tilt and said the team were working extremely hard at getting rid of the tag as being a poor fielding side. "It is something we are working on, we know we have that tag now," Edwards added. "Sometimes I get frustrated because we can drop one catch and we are labelled a bad fielding team, even though we have fielded really well otherwise. "I am confident we can get to a place where people are talking really positively about our fielding."

Mithali Raj's advice to India on how to win Women's World Cup ICC Women's Cricket World Cup, 2025
India great Mithali Raj has revealed what she believes her former team needs to do well if they are to win a first ICC Women's Cricket World Cup title later this year. The Asian side will head into this year's tournament on home soil as one of the favourites to claim the famous trophy, though the likes of seven-time champions Australia and four-time winners England will be standing in their way as India attempt to clinch their maiden World Cup title. Countdown to the World Cup - ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025 If India are to go all the way and win a first World Cup trophy, Raj thinks the side must make the most of their chances and do the little things well during the eight-team tournament that commences on September 30. "I think (India) needs to seize those small moments during the big games," Raj told ICC Digital recently. "That's where the balance (is) of the teams which are in contention. "They try and use more of those moments and try to shift the momentum to their side and India need to seize those moments." Mithali Raj, Yuvraj Singh, Sanjog Gupta | ICC Countdown to World Cup Mithali Raj, Yuvraj SIngh, Sanjog Gupta | ICC Countdown to World Cup Raj famously led India to a pair of World Cup finals in 2005 and 2017, but the side fell at the final hurdle on both occasions as that elusive title remained out of grasp. The former India skipper believes a World Cup title would have a massive impact on the women's game in India should they be able to hold aloft the trophy on November 2. "I think it would be huge," Raj commenced. "I mean, that is something that all the players, whoever picks up the bat, whoever wants to represent the country would want to win the World Cup because so far India hasn't. "Yes, we've come close twice, but we haven't got our hands on the Cup. "It would be great to win a World Cup at home because that's a very different stage giving all of us an opportunity to see that." Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Jemimah Rodrigues | ICC Countdown to World Cup Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Jemimah Rodrigues | ICC Countdown to World Cup And while the likes of skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, Jemimah Rodrigues, Deepti Sharma and Smriti Mandhana will attract a lot of the headlines heading into the tournament, Raj believes it will be how the next batch of stars perform that will decide India's fate. Raj nominated inexperienced seamer Kranti Goud as a player she thinks might have a major impact at this year's World Cup, despite the fact the 22-year-old has only played four ODIs for her country. "I was quite impressed with Kranti Goud in England with her raw talent," Raj noted. "She has played WPL (Women's Premier League) but she does not really have that much experience. "But the grit that she gets as a seamer trying to keep pegging in and getting wickets (is impressive) and she picked up a six-wicket haul (in England) as well so I would love to see her in the World Cup playing at home."
