Young Players Will Grab Opportunities With Both Hands, Says Smriti Ahead Of ODIs V Ireland
Niranjan Shah Stadium: Smriti Mandhana, India’s skipper for the upcoming ODI series against Ireland, believes the side’s decision to rest regular captain Harmanpreet Kaur and pacer Renuka Singh is an opportunity for youngsters to grab the vacant spots with both hands. In place of the rested Harmanpreet and Renuka, India have included batter Raghavi Bist, who debuted in T20Is against the West Indies, and uncapped pacer Sayali Satghare.
“Renuka and Harman both have been really important members and they have played their part amazingly well.”
“But of course, because they are rested, it's an opportunity for two of the other young girls. I wouldn't reveal a lot about eleven, but whoever will get the opportunity, I am sure they will try and grab it with both hands. Playing for your country is always a matter of pride and I am sure that all the girls take pride in it. Tomorrow, whoever gets the opportunity, takes it and we have more match-winners for India.”
