Big Bash League: Former India captain Anjum Chopra thinks skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, who suffered a slump in form in the series against Australia, needed some time to recover after playing in the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL), but she didn’t get that.

Harmanpreet began with making 26 off 21 balls in the T20I series opener against England, before recording two single-digit scores. She then scored 49 and 44 not out in the one-off Test against England, before a slump in form saw her record six single digit scores in the all-format series against Australia, which ended in a seven-wicket defeat for India in the decider.

“I always look at things positively. I try to find areas where we challenged them wholeheartedly. Because we won the 1st T20I, there were expectations that we would do similarly well in the remaining games. But that didn’t happen. Harmanpreet batted will in the Test against England. She was a little subdued in the ODIs.
