Harmanpreet Kaur hails Indian team after winning Tri-series final against Sri Lanka
New Delhi [India] May 11 (ANI): Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur expressed her gratitude for the team's performance, especially the batting against Sri Lanka in the Tri-series Final on Sunday. Team India delivered a commanding performance to seal the Women's ODI Tri-Series title, posting a daunting 342/7 before bundling out Sri Lanka Women for 245 in the final, as per ESPNCricinfo. 'Proud of the entire team, they really played good cricket. Really happy with the way we batted today. The improvement never stops, though, such as areas like fielding, bowling and building good partnerships. Our medium pacers keep getting injured, so we need to work on that. The team is working on that,' Harmanpreet Kaur said in the post-match presentation. Kaur acknowledged areas for improvement, such as fielding and addressing injuries among medium pacers, and highlighted positive performances from other batters and Sneh Rana. 'But we're going to try and keep playing good cricket. But the way the other batters apart from Smriti and me, the way they batted was a big positive. The way Sneh Rana bowled was also a big positive. There are a lot of positives to talk about, but just want the enjoy the moment right now,' Kaur added. India's top order flourished with Mandhana leading the charge, while the middle order ensured the momentum never dipped. On the other hand, the Sri Lankan bowlers failed to stem the run flow, especially during the crucial middle overs. Mandhana made a brilliant 116 off 101 deliveries, and captain Kaur made a quick 41 runs in 30 balls. Mandhana was awarded player of the match for her century, and Sneh Rana was named Player of the series, as she grabbed 15 wickets in the Tri-series. Brief score: India Women 342/7 in 50 overs (Smriti Mandhana 116, Harleen Deol 47; Sugandika Kumari 2/59) vs. Sri Lanka Women 245 in 48.2 overs (Chamari Athapaththu 51, Nilakshika Silva 48; Sneh Rana 4/38).

NUMBERS GAME: India have given 17 debuts in women's ODIs since December 2023 – what does it mean in the lead up to a World Cup?
Playing for your country at the highest level is a dream every cricketer harbours, the feeling of making a debut is unmatched, but how many is too many? On Sunday in Colombo, India captain Harmanpreet Kaur said something at the toss that has now become a regularity: there was a debutant in the playing XI for the Women's ODI Tri-series final, with Madhya Pradesh pacer Kranti Goud getting her first international cap. It was the fourth different debutant for India just in this tri-series in Sri Lanka alone, continuing a trend we have seen over the past year or so. Picking India's three-match ODI series against Australia that started on December 28, 2023, as a starting point, India have handed debuts to a whopping 17 players in the 23 matches they have played to date. From Saika Ishaque and Shreyanka Patil in that series to Kashvee Gautam, Sree Charani, Shuchi Upadhyay and Kranti Goud in the Tri-series in Colombo, the Indian selectors and management have been generous in fielding newcomers. While it could be seen as an indication of the widening talent pool, and injuries have played a part too, the bigger concern is the lack of continuity. In comparison, during this same period, Australia – the benchmark in women's cricket – have had one debutant across 18 matches, to exciting young batter Georgia Voll. The other top World Cup title contender England have played 18 matches in this duration and handed 6 debuts. But even all of those came in the September 2024 series against Ireland when Kate Cross led a much-changed side. India's 17 debuts since December 2023 is by some distance the most across the 8 teams who will be playing at the ODI World Cup starting end of September in India. While each of those cricketers would have their own journeys to the top of the international game, and there is nothing to take away from their efforts, the lack of consistency in selection leading up to a home World Cup makes for worrying reading. In his stint as India's head coach, Amol Muzumdar, along with captain Harmanpreet, seems to be searching for the right bowling combination. India have used 32 different players in ODIs since that series in Mumbai against Australia 17 months back. A majority of the newcomers have either been spinners or medium pacers. The full list of India's debutants in women's ODI since December 27, 2023 reads like this: Saika Ishaque, Shreyanka Patil, Mannat Kashyap, S Asha, Arundhati Reddy, Tejal Hasabnis, Saima Thakor, Priya Mishra, Titas Sadhu, Minnu Mani, Pratika Rawal, Tanuja Kanwar, Sayali Sathgare, Kashvee Gautam, Sree Charani, Shuchi Upadhyay, Kranti Goud. The clear pattern is India's search for a potent bowling unit. Renuka Singh Thakur (now injured) and Deepti Sharma have perhaps been the only two consistent picks, while the remaining spots have witnessed musical chairs. Among the debutants, only Saima and Pratika have featured in at least 10 matches, most of them out of reckoning after a few games. Each new debut is a question mark over a player who was picked and dropped without too many games to feature in. And given the lack of transparency in Indian women team selections, with barely any information on the reasoning for players getting overlooked, it is tough to understand what the thought process is heading towards a World Cup. With only 15 slots available ultimately, and the batting unit appearing largely settled, the big question is what have the Indian selectors, coach and captain actually learned from using this vast pool of players? And additionally, are the players aware where they stand and what they need to do to seal a spot in the squad once they get selected? Just five months away from the World Cup, and only scheduled series left to play, there are more questions than answers around India's squad composition.
