Amol Muzumdar predicts Indian women to dominate cricket within two years

Indian women’s head coach Amol Muzumdar believes the national team is on track to dominate world cricket in white-ball formats within the next two years. Speaking at a Sports Journalists Association of Mumbai event, Muzumdar highlighted the strength of the talent pipeline, noting that young cricketers from age-group camps are increasingly professionalized.

Muzumdar indicated that the team is moving toward establishing a dedicated T20I squad similar to the Indian men’s setup. He attributed this potential shift to the high level of athleticism, nutritional awareness, and tactical understanding displayed by players in the U-15 and U-19 camps at the BCCI Centre of Excellence.

The coach’s comments come as the team enters a new leadership era under captain Smriti Mandhana, following Harmanpreet Kaur’s departure from all-format captaincy. The team is preparing for the inaugural six-team ICC T20I Champions Trophy to be held in Mumbai and Vadodara.
