February 12, 2025

When Mumbai Indians, winners of the inaugural Women's Premier League (WPL), start their campaign against Delhi Capitals in Vadodara on Saturday, all eyes will be on skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, who was rested for the series against Ireland and sat out the two matches against West Indies at home owing to a knee injury.

CHANDIGARH:

The fans would be eyeing some powerhitting from the swashbuckling batter who is known for hitting big sixes. At the same time, Kaur, who turns 36 next month, will eye WPL as the platform to make a comeback, addressing form and fitness issues.

A successful WPL season will give confidence to Kaur, who will be India's main middle-order batter as the team builds up to the ODI World Cup to be staged at home in September.

As captain, she will have to work in conjunction with head coach and former England legend Charlotte Edwards, former Australia opener Nicole Bolton the fielding coach and mentor Jhulan Goswami, who is doing wonders as mentor of the Bengal women's team.
