Vaishnavi Sharma’s recent inclusion in the Indian team for the T20I series against Sri Lanka highlights her impressive domestic performances, according to head coach Amol Muzumdar. Debuting in the series opener in Visakhapatnam, she showcased her talent by conceding only 16 runs in four overs.
Muzumdar commended Sharma’s response to the team’s expectations, emphasizing that her selection was a result of her success in under-19 cricket and domestic tournaments. Sharma, a key player in the Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup victory, has continued to shine with notable performances in the Senior Women’s T20 Trophy.
Despite going unsold in the WPL 2026 mega auction, Sharma has excelled in the ongoing series against Sri Lanka, impressing with her skills and composure. Looking ahead to the T20 World Cup in England in June-July 2026, Muzumdar emphasized the importance of establishing a stable team combination.
India’s focus remains on enhancing all aspects of their game, including fielding and fitness, as they prepare for the upcoming T20 World Cup. Muzumdar highlighted the team’s commitment to continuous improvement and their positive mindset following their ODI World Cup triumph.
