The Indian team has been in sublime form right through the season
#4 Solid opening combination
Punam Raut has been solid at the top of the order
One of the primary reasons for the recent success of the Indian team is the stable platform laid by their opening pair. The combination of Deepti Sharma and Punam Raut at the top of the order has worked wonders for the fortunes of the side as they have consistently performed well, giving the team a solid base.

The duo recorded a rare feat in a match against Ireland as they smashed 320 runs together for the opening stand and scripted their way into the record books by registering the highest partnership in the history of the game.
The fortunes of the Indian side in the tournament will largely depend on the performances of their in-form opening combination as they need to provide a solid foundation for the team at the top of the order.
