India’s off-spin bowling all-rounder Deepti Sharma, who missed the second T20I due to a mild fever, is now fit and available for selection, confirmed head coach Amol Muzumdar. The BCCI medical team has been monitoring her recovery closely. Muzumdar also mentioned that pacer Renuka Singh Thakur has not been tried out yet in the series as they are exploring different combinations.
Jemimah Rodrigues, who performed well in the previous games, skipped a practice session as a precautionary measure. The team is closely monitoring her condition, and she is expected to be fit for the upcoming match. This will mark the first women’s international game at the Greenfield International Stadium, with the team strategizing for a series win at this new venue.
Muzumdar expressed the team’s excitement about playing at the new venue in Trivandrum. They are focusing on understanding the conditions and adapting their game plan accordingly. The team plans to assess the pitch and ground during the nets session to make informed decisions about bowling or batting first based on the conditions.
