New Delhi: The Indian women's cricket team open their ICC World Cup campaign today against England at Derby, hoping to build up on their impressive 8-wicket win over South Africa in the final of the Quadrangular series they participated in recently.
India will be playing the tournament under the much-experienced Mithali Raj, who recently became the third player to lead her team in 100 ODIs.
While there would be plenty of responsibilities on Mithali as far as the team's batting is concerned, Jhulan Goswami, the highest wicket-taker in ODI history, will be hoping to inspire the bowling attack.
Going into the tournament, the India skipper will be confident of putting in a good performance against the hosts. (FULL PREVIEW)
