Harmanpreet’s team will face Oval Invincibles on July 21 and the cricketer, who is known for her explosive hitting prowess, is ready to break some records

This is Shafali Verma’s maiden call up to the Indian ODI and the Test squad, starting next month

India’s Shafali Verma reclaimed the title of world’s number 1 batter in the ICC Women’s T20I Player Rankings. The 17-year-old cricketer scored 60 runs in 30 balls in the Women’s T20I finals.

India opener Shafali Verma top-scored for India with 47 off 31 deliveries, slamming six fours and two sixes in the inning.

Team India will be lead by Smriti Mandana, as Harmanpreet Kaur sits out match one due to injury.

Shafali Verma, who didn’t feature in India’s ODI squad, is the player to look out for in the India Vs South Africa T20 series that starts today.

Shafali Verma is the youngest in the country to score an international fifty. By doing so, she broke the 30-year-old record of master blaster Sachin Tendulkar.

This tournament will take place during the IPL playoffs. The three teams – Supernovas, Velocity and Trailblazers – are set to play three matches between November 4 and 9 in Sharjah.

“Yes there will be restrictions but that’s only for our safety,” said cricketer Shafali Verma.

Shafali Verma ​is at the third spot while Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues are at seventh and ninth positions in the ICC T20I rankings for batswomen
