New Delhi. Team India’s batsman Jemima Rodrigues finished second in the inaugural Women’s T20 event at the Commonwealth Games (CWG2022) in Birmingham. After a poor game in the beginning, Jemima came into her own color and showed that she is the number three player in the shortest format cricket. Jemima had failed to get a New Zealand ticket for the Women’s World Cup earlier this year, but has slowly made herself a regular in T20 Internationals. She became a big reason for India reaching the final of the Commonwealth Games 2022. Jemima scored an unbeaten 56 in India’s final group stage match against Barbados Women, which helped her confidence a lot.
In the semi-final opener Smriti Mandhana hit the fastest half-century by an Indian batsman. At the same time, Jemima played an innings of 44 not out in 31 balls. Jemima played a brilliant innings of 33 runs against Australia in the final, but unfortunately the Indian team had to face defeat. Australia won gold in Commonwealth and India had to be content with silver.
34 runs in one over, now on the mountain of runs, Kohli and Rohit are not far away
During the semi-final against England, Jemima did a full stretch to both legs to save herself from stumping during the match. She saved her wicket this way, but also became a part of a great meme that started with Mahendra Singh Dhoni. After this, Virat Kohli also did the same pose once to save himself from getting out. In this way Jemima joined Dhoni and Virat’s elite list.
Jemima has shared a similar posing picture of herself, Dhoni and Virat. Sharing this picture, Jemima wrote, “Looks like I am a part of the elite company now.”
Let us tell you that the 21-year-old Mumbai batsman is currently playing for Northern Superchargers in ‘The Hundred’. Jemima was the second highest run-scorer in women’s ‘The Hundred’ last year. He scored 249 runs in 7 matches. She recently admitted that the tournament has been like a blessing in her life, as she went into the tournament in 2021 but was not in great form. This competition helped him to bring back his confidence.
Those 5 innings of Virat Kohli, whoever saw it said – Wow, today is a very special day
Jemima started the 2022 edition with a 31-ball fifty and would be hoping to continue her form. Not only him but Smriti Mandhana and all-rounder Deepti Sharma are also a part of the competition this year.
