As the ICC Women’s t20 World Cup comes close, former Indian cricketer Veda Krishnamurthy has talked about the role spinners are going to play for India, along with 27-year-old Deepti Sharma being expected the be the key to success. India in known for its spin-dominated takes, and will be expected to rely on them to go with the challenge, especially on the grounds of the UAE.

Speaking with Star Sports, Krishnamurthy said, “Adjusting to the conditions is crucial when playing in the UAE, especially with this squad. Since the last tournament was in Bangladesh, not many changes have been made.”

“It’s a very spin-heavy team, and we rely heavily on spinners, particularly Deepti Sharma, who has been a key bowler for us. With the fast bowlers, especially Pooja Vastrakar coming in with the semi-new ball and hitting those hard lengths, it’s worked well for India.”

“It’s all about how they start, and they need Renuka to fire, regardless of the conditions. If they manage that, I think India will be very dominant in this World Cup.”

She also expanded on how she thinks Indian all-rounder Deepti Sharma will play as a turning point in Indian team as they attempt to make history in the T20 World Cup.

“She definitely will be, as her bowling is crucial. If there’s any turn on offer, I think she’ll be even more deadly in those conditions. It’s been over a decade now she debuted in 2014 and she’s grown as a cricketer every year. She’s reached a point where she’s a vital part of the Indian team, regardless of the format.

Her performance, especially with the bat, will be key. Whether she’s coming in at number seven or eight, she can get those crucial runs. Deepti has been in good form with the franchise leagues she’s played in, and she just needs to carry that form into this World Cup and do well for India.”
