India trying out various options: Jhulan Goswami

Goswami didn't give a definitive answer on vice-captain Harmanpreet Kaur's batting position but indicated that a lot of options will be tried out before the World Cup in New Zealand next year.

Taunton: The Indian women’s cricket team would be trying out various options during the upcoming England series and beyond to check out what is the best possible combination that can be fielded going into next year’s Women’s ODI World Cup in New Zealand, said senior player Jhulan Goswami.

India’s senior middle-order batters like skipper Mithali Raj, Punam Raut and Deepti Sharma were all guilty of wasting as many as 180 odd deliveries in the first ODI which England won by eight wickets chasing a modest target of 202.

Goswami didn’t give a definitive answer on vice-captain Harmanpreet Kaur’s batting position but indicated that a lot of options will be tried out before the World Cup in New Zealand next year.

“Well, we are trying to settle our combination. We are trying to create a few options. Now which options will click for us, we are (still) searching for that. Whatever things will happen (options we finalise), the management will take a call before the World Cup,” Goswami said on the eve of second WODI against England.
