Mithali Raj-led India will take on hosts England in the Finals of the Women’s World Cup at Lords. There is already a big built-up around the finale. Indian eves have made it to the finals after 12 years and would be hoping to lift the crown. What will also give them a lot of confidence is the fact that they have defeated the hosts in the tournament opener. But does that mean they go into the match with their noses in front? Yes, after Harmanpreet Kaur’s breathtaking 171 not out off 115 balls. In fact, for that matter all the ladies from the Indian top four has got a triple-digit score in the tournament, Smriti Mandhana, Poonam Raut, Mithali Raj and Harmapreet Kaur. Indian eves will know that this would be Mithali Raj and Jhulan Goswami’s last world cup game and hence you could see a rise in intensity and will.
Mithali Raj and Co. are not keeping any stones upturned as they hit the nets at Lords as soon as they reached London. That is the levels of eagerness to win the match and lift the trophy.
England on the other hand would be vary of team India knowing their current form and the confidence levels.

We see Jhulan Goswami flexing her muscles as Mithali Raj gets ready to bat in the nets. It looks like they are tightening the screws ahead of the grand clash.
