New Delhi [India], October 27 (ANI): India have named Shafali Verma as a replacement for Pratika Rawal, who has been ruled out of the ongoing ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025 following an ankle injury.
Rawal twisted her ankle in the final group-stage game against Bangladesh in Navi Mumbai and was subsequently taken off the field. She wasn't available to bat in the chase that was eventually called off due to rain, as per the ICC website.
Rawal has scored the second-most runs at the ongoing World Cup, amassing 308 runs across six innings at an impressive 51.33 average, bettered only by her opening partner Smriti Mandhana, who leads the run-scoring charts with 365 runs. Rawal has amassed 703 runs at an impressive average of 54.07 in just 14 innings since her debut in December 2024.
