Shafali Verma belongs to that rare breed of players who emerge once in a generation with an ability to singlehandedly win matches against any opposition, legendary former skipper Mithali Raj said on Monday. Mithali, who recently announced her retirement from international cricket, is amazed at the kind of "raw power" that the 1 -year-old generates in her shots.
"I have been a big fan of her game. I have seen that she`s one player who has the ability to win the game single-handedly for India against any attack and any team. She is one of those players that you get to see probably once in a generation," Mithali told ICC`s 100 percent `Cricket Podcast`. Shafali made an instant impression on Raj on India`s domestic circuit. "When I saw Shafali in a domestic match when she played against Indian Railways, she scored a fifty but I could see a glimpse of a player who could change the entire match just with her innings," said Mithali.
