    The team was captained by Mithali back then as well. The team performed well that time, but lost to Australia. Her career is drawing to a close, so she has a great chance to win the cup now.” Drawing a parallel to the Virat Kohli-led side that lost to Pakistan in the Champions Trophy last month, Dorai Raj said that Mithali has never been overconfident in her life. 

    “I don’t think that Mithali will be overconfident. She has been in these situations before and she’ll be calm and study her opponents before playing them.” he said. He believed that the result of this match could change the face of women’s cricket in India and added that the team has a chance to create history. He said, “They’ll have to put in their best. If they do so, they will go down in history like the men’s team of 1983.”
