Indian women’s cricket captain Mithali Raj has been playing for a long time and there has been a lot of talk about her retirement over the past few years. The Women’s World Cup in 2022 may be the last tournament of Mitali’s career. The second decade of Mithali’s international career is underway.
On Saturday, Mithali Raj, signaling the end of his two-decade long career, said: ‘I know the 2022 ODI World Cup in New Zealand will be the last tournament of my 21-year international career. The last year of my career was equivalent to 20 years of my international cricket. Mithali said, ‘I know we’re in difficult times, but I take a lot of time to work on my fitness. I am no longer young and I know the importance of fitness. Knowing that we only have a few visits before the World Cup is important to stay in good emotional and mental balance. From now on, every tour is important to me as a batsman. It helps me understand how to prepare a good team for the World Cup.
He continued, ‘Yeah, I’m optimistic. The way the players are playing these days and the excitement of the upcoming series is so good. Mithali acknowledged that fast bowling is an area where the team needs to improve, especially with leading bowler Julan Goswami at the end of his career. We should definitely look at some players and prepare them for the World Cup.
