Harmanpreet Kaur will lead India in ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), on Tuesday, 19th August, announced the Indian Women’s Cricket squad for the upcoming ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025. Harmanpreet Kaur will lead the strong 15-member squad in the tournament, which will be a home World Cup for them.
The biggest highlight of the squad was Shafali Verma getting dropped. The opening batter has been doing a decent job with the bat for the team, and her snub came as a shock, as she has been doing well in the white-ball formats.
Smriti Mandhana will be the vice-captain of the team in ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025. While big names in Harleen Deol, Deepti Sharma, and Jemimah Rodrigues have retained their place in the squad. They will be holding the key for the team in the tournament.
