Jhulan Goswami has been off-colour throughout the tournament

Mona Meshram - 4

Mona Meshram was preferred in the middle order ahead of Veda Krishnamurthy in the first few matches and was dropped to accommodate Veda and that proved to be the masterstroke.

In the three matches she played, Mona scored just 24 runs at an average of 24 and a strike-rate of 35, something that is not at all acceptable in modern day cricket.

Jhulan Goswami - 6

Jhulan Goswami's form has been a huge concern for the Indian team in the ongoing World Cup. Jhulan is by far the best bowler to have graced the game and a lot was expected from her in the ongoing tournament as she spearheaded the Indian attack that has the likes of Shikha Pandey and Mansi Joshi.

But, the pacer from Bengal managed to take just five wickets at an average of 42 and an economy of 4.5, numbers that are below-par in the standards she has set for herself.

Having said that, the Champions players are known to bring their A-game in big moments and Jhulan will look to do the same when she takes the field against the Southern Stars on July 20 and hopefully in the finals.
