Star batter Jemimah Rodrigues and all-rounder Shikha Pandey have been left out of the squad. Ekta Bisht alongside Sabbhineni Meghana, and imran Dil Bahadur have been named as the back ups for the World cup. Yastika Bhatia who impressed with the bat in his maiden series has also been included in the squad for World Cup.
I’m only wondering what awfully went wrong in order for both Jemimah Rodrigues and Shikha Pandey to be in the reserves, too… It’s a World Cup we’re talking about and not just any other bilateral series! #WCWC2022
