Anjum Chopra Backs Harmanpreet As India's Best Long-term Captain Choice
T20 World Cup: Since the time Harmanpreet Kaur took over as captain of the Indian team in T20Is in 2017, 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup marked the first time of the side not entering the semi-finals under her leadership.
With an ODI World Cup at home next year, followed by another T20 World Cup in England in 2026, the chatter around Harmanpreet’s future as the Indian team skipper has been huge. But former India captain Anjum Chopra thinks Harmanpreet is still the best person to lead the side.
“You don't just make a leader; you prepare a leader. I know for sure that in this present Indian team other than Harmanpreet Kaur, there is no leader at present. Can be, will be, of course, Harmanpreet will not remain at the helm. She will not play cricket forever. There will be a leader, but as of now, Harmanpreet as the Indian captain is the best bet and she should be persisted with.”
