The Indian men's cricket team has won the T20 World Cup this year and now all eyes are on the Indian women's cricket team as they have also reached UAE to play the Women's T20 World Cup.

The Indian women's cricket team has reached UAE to play the T20 World Cup 2024 and now crores of fans have the same expectations from Harmanpreet Kaur's team as Rohit Sharma's team had done a few months ago. However, to do this, the women's team will expect strong batting from opener Shefali Verma because if she gives a good start in the opening, then the path ahead will be easy for India.

Shefali herself has admitted that she has taken inspiration from Rohit Sharma's batting style in the power play. Shefali said that she enjoyed seeing Rohit taking full advantage of the powerplay. She also named Australian women's team captain Alyssa Healy, who impressed her with her batting in the first six overs. The Indian opener recalled Rohit Sharma's innings in the World Cup and said that he has played memorable innings at the top of the order.

“I would pick India's Rohit Sharma because the way he uses the powerplay is memorable to watch. Even in the World Cup, there are 2-3 innings which I remember,” Shefali told Star Sports. I always like how they take advantage of the power play. I would also take the name of Alyssa Healy because whenever she is in good form, she takes full advantage of the power play. After that she continues her innings. She always wants to play the full 20 overs, so I will choose her too.”

If we talk about the upcoming Women's T20 World Cup, the ten teams have been divided into two groups of five each. This tournament will start from October 3 and 23 matches will be played in 18 days. The tournament will take place in a round-robin format, with each team facing the other four teams in its group. The top two teams from each group will advance to the knockout stage.
