Former India captain Mithali Raj says India should consider changing its batting order after the team suffers a six-wicket defeat to South Africa in the Women’s T20 World Cup at Old Trafford. Following the loss, Raj suggests promoting India captain Harmanpreet Kaur to the number four spot. Her recommendation is framed as a response to India’s batting performance in the match, aiming to adjust the team’s structure for the next games. The suggestion is reported in the context of India’s attempt to regroup in the tournament after falling short against South Africa. India’s defeat by six wickets indicates South Africa’s successful chase, while India’s batting did not provide a total strong enough to defend. Raj’s comments focus on a specific lineup change rather than broader tactical shifts, emphasizing the potential impact of placing the captain higher in the batting order. The reports describe the advice as a possible adjustment moving forward in the Women’s T20 World Cup campaign.
