Jemimah Rodrigues admitted that the Indian team’s performances in the 2024 Women’s T20 World Cup were not as strong as they should have been.
For Jemimah, batting with clarity is a combination of reading the pitch, recognising the team’s needs, and having the confidence and self-backing to contribute positively to the team’s success.
Deepti Sharma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Shikha Pandey, Yastika Bhatia and Dayalan Hemalatha have found teams in the second WBBL overseas draft held on Sunday.
The news came on Tuesday, September 6 that Rodrigues has signed with the club for the eighth season of the league.
During her 58 T20I appearances for India, Jemimah has averaged an amazing 29.6 with seven half-centuries. For India, she has also participated in 21 ODI matches.
Shafali Verma along with Jemimah Rodrigues added as many as 37 runs for the second wicket, the highest partnership in the innings.
Meanwhile, Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur was also happy with the team's performance and highlighted how the win against four-time champions Australia is a sign of India becoming better as a unit.
19-year-old Jemimah Rodrigues, who has represented India in 34 T20Is and 16 ODIs, is expecting a good crowd turnout in Australia for the India women.
It is worth highlighting that the 19-year-old has been a regular member of the Indian team from the past year and has been one of its consistent stars.
By the end, the West Indies could only muster 59 for 9. Chinelle Henry top-scored with 11 off 18 deliveries while Chedean Nation had 11 from 27. Bowling for India, Radha Yadav had 2 for 6 from four overs, while Deepti Sharma had 2 for 12 from her spell.
