Amanjots Absence From T20 WC A Big Blow, Nandnis Rise Encouraging, Says Muzumdar

IISM Degree Distribution Ceremony: India head coach Amol Muzumdar admitted that seam-bowling all-rounder Amanjot Kaurs absence from the 2026 Womens T20 World Cup is a major setback for the team but expressed confidence in uncapped pacer Nandni Sharmas emergence in the next few months. The Womens T20 World Cup squad was picked on Saturday and the selectors chose Nandni for the mega event as well as three T20Is against England and one-off Test at the Lords in July, especially with Amanjot and Kashvee Gautam ruled out due to injuries. She is injured and it is very difficult to replace somebody like Amanjot. She has been doing consistently well for India, we will miss her for sure but injuries are part of the game. She has had a bad one (back injury), and she will be out of cricket for at least four-five months. I hope she recovers well and comes back stronger. She is difficult to replace but that is the way it goes, Muzumdar said to reporters on the sidelines of the IISM Degree Distribution Ceremony here on Sunday. Nandni made heads turn by picking 17 wickets for Delhi Capitals in WPL 2026, including being first Indian pacer to take a hat-trick. She also went to Rising Stars Womens Asia Cup in Bangkok, before being ruled out due to injury. Nandani has been a great player for us throughout the WPL. To be honest, when we got her, we didnt know what to expect; we knew she had the talent. When she came on to the bigger stage of WPL in front of the world, the way she delivered, not just that five-wicket haul, every single game she was consistent. I know this team, it is going to welcome her, prepare her well and there is a lot of experience in this team and that is going to get the best out of her, added an upbeat Muzumdar. He also stressed on the importance of the upcoming camp of the womens team at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru starting on May 10, before the side leaves for England on May 22. It has always been an integral part of this team. We believe in preparing well for every challenge that is in front of us. I believe this team is on the right track and we would be hoping to have a very good camp before we set off for the World Cup. Travelling to England is always a challenge but this set of players is ready for it. He also stressed on the importance of the upcoming camp of the womens team at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru starting on May 10, before the side leaves for England on May 22. Also Read: Live Cricket Score With Amanjots lower-order hitting unavailable, it means Bharti Fulmali may be considered to be in the playing eleven for the series against England and the World Cup.

Josh Inglis Links Up With LSG For IPL 2026

Lucknow Super Giants: Lucknow Super Giants have received a timely boost with Australian wicketkeeper-batter Josh Inglis joining the squad ahead of their crucial IPL 2026 clash against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday. The 31-year-old, whose availability had been a topic of discussion since the auction, has now reached India and started training with the team. Inglis had previously told franchises that he would miss part of the season due to personal commitments, such as his wedding in Western Australia on April 18, which caused some uncertainty about his participation. Despite initial doubts, Lucknow signed him for Rs 8.6 crore after his release from Punjab Kings, where he had played for a much lower fee. His delayed arrival raised questions, but now his inclusion is crucial for LSG, who are struggling at the bottom of the standings with only two wins in eight matches. Inglis addition is anticipated to bolster a batting lineup that has struggled with consistency this season, especially among the overseas players. Given the limited contributions from key individuals, the Australians aggressive style of play might provide the boost the team needs. Confirming the news across social media platforms, LSG shared a picture that said Explosives from Down Under. He comes with strong credentials from the last edition, having scored 278 runs in 11 innings with a strike rate over 160. His skill to handle top-quality pace could be crucial, particularly against a Mumbai attack led by Jasprit Bumrah. Inglis has previously performed well against the Indian fast bowler, especially during a key moment last season when he faced Bumrah.
