India skipper Mithali Raj has welcomed the selection of teen sensation Shafali Verma in all three formats and said it would be crucial to get back to winning ways on the UK tour after the disappointment at home against South Africa. Robbed of crucial game-time due to the pandemic, India will get the ball rolling with the UK tour comprising a one-off Test, three ODIs and as many T20s.
With the ODI World Cup scheduled in New Zealand early next year, the plans and preparation for the 50-over format assumes more significance especially after the loss to South Africa at home. Big-hitting opener Shafali`s exclusion from the ODI squad for the South Africa series became a big talking point.
