India’s senior women’s cricket team return to action for the first time since Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 as they will square off against Bangladesh in three ODIs and as many as T20Is, later this month. The Indian squad announced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) frankly came up with a lot of surprises as many big names like Shikha Pandey, Richa Ghosh and Renuka Singh Thakur are missing from the side. The upcoming India vs Bangladesh white-ball series will feature Harmanpreet Kaur as captain of ‘Women in Blue’.

In an exclusive conversation with ex-India head coach WV Raman on Sportstar, India’s senior women’s cricket team’s star pacer Shikha Pandey broke down on camera while talking about the disappointment of not finding a place in the Indian team.
“If I say that I am not disappointed and angry, I am not human. It is difficult when you do not get the result of the work that you have done. I am sure there is some reason behind it which I do not know. Hard work is in my hands, and I firmly believe in hard work. So it is just about working hard till I am mentally and physically fit,” Shikha Pandey said during the interview.
