NOTTINGHAM: The Indian women’s team faces an uphill task when it meets the unbeaten New Zealand side during the semifinals of the World Twenty20 championship here on Thursday.
Shrugging off the opening match disappointment against England, India bounced back with two successive wins against Pakistan and Sri Lanka to book its place during the last four.
Openers Poonam Raut and Anjum Chopra have not clicked as a pair so far also the middle-order has also looked a bit shaky even while chasing paltry targets.
In the bowling front, the pace plus spin combination of Rumeli Dhar and Priyanka Roy have provided India the breakthroughs and also picked up crucial wickets.
The two have bagged five wickets each into the tournament so far. However, skipper Jhulan Goswami’s form with the ball has been a concern for the team.
The Kiwis have kept a clean slate, winning their matches against Australia, West Indies with South Africa in the league phase. — PTI
