Harmanpreet Kaur scores 91* to set new Indian T20I record

Harmanpreet Kaur scored an unbeaten 91 runs off 41 balls against Zimbabwe in the third T20I match held at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur. Her explosive innings, featuring 10 boundaries and five sixes, helped India reach a total of 216/7.

With this performance, Kaur has become the Indian batter to record the highest individual score in a women's T20 International match played on Indian soil, surpassing the previous record of 80 runs held by Smriti Mandhana.

Following her recent departure from the captaincy role, which was handed to Smriti Mandhana, Kaur stated that she feels less pressure and is now focused on enjoying her batting. She credited batting coach Himanshu for her improved form, noting that intensive practice on bat swing and simulating match pressure in the nets contributed to her success.
