Harmanpreet Kaur seems keen on taking a leaf out of Virat Kohli’s book. The skipper plans to raise the fitness level of the Indian women’s cricket team by setting an example.
India takes on Sri Lanka in the first ODI at Pallekele on Friday. It is her first ODI in the leadership role after she was named captain following the retirement of Mithali Raj from international cricket.
“I have set goals as a captain and fitness is very important,” she said. “As for skills as a player, we have coaches around us, but I want to set a goal for my team in fitness. I want to set an example and motivate them. The team’s fitness is something I really want to improve.”
