Mithali Raj bats for Harleen Deol to open with Smriti Mandhana vs Australia after Pratika Rawal injury | Cricket News

With India opener Pratika Rawal suffering an injury which will likely rule her out of the all-important Women’s World Cup semifinal vs Australia on Thursday, former skipper Mithali Raj backed Harleen Deol to be promoted to the opening slot. “The question now is who opens with Smriti if Pratika isn’t fit to take the field on the 30th. The first option could be promoting number three, Harleen, since she’s often walked in early and is comfortable facing the new ball,” Mithali said on JioStar. Rawal was injured while fielding at deep midwicket vs Bangladesh on Sunday when her foot got stuck in the damp outfield and she twisted her ankle. She was taken away from the field with Arundhati Reddy coming in as a substitute fielder. A stretcher was also rushed to the field by the ground staff but it was not needed as the batter hobbled off the field with the help of the Indian support staff.
