India women’s T20I skipper Harmanpreet Kaur on Thursday said everyone will get to see a new approach from her in the upcoming three-match series against England.The multi-format series between India and England sits at 6-4 to England, and each T20I will be worth two points. The three-match T20I series will begin on Friday. Harmanpreet has not been able to show any form with the bat as she recorded scores of 16,19 and 1 in the three ODIs. She was not able to get among the runs in the one-off Test as well.
“Well, every series is important for us. Whenever you play a series, the main purpose is to build the team for the World Cup. Talking about my performance, I am someone who likes to train every day. Because of Covid-19, I did not get much time to prepare and train, but this is not an excuse. International level, you do not get things easily, but after five games, five innings, I have understood where I need to improve and in the T20I series, you will see a different approach from my side,” Harmanpreet said during a virtual press conference.
“Having said that, I got Covid and there were injuries, I did not get much time to train. I like to train and I did not get much time to prepare. We did not get a single practice game, I prefer open nets and practice games as compared to nets. It is about one good innings,” she added.
Earlier, India went on to lose the three-match ODI series against England but the solitary win in the third ODI will give the visitors a much-needed boost ahead of the upcoming T20I leg of the tour.
