IND W V AUS W: Alyssa Healy Ready For The Challenge Of Captaincy, Triple Roles
Cricket World Cup: Australian woman cricketer Alyssa Healy is facing the most challenging period of her cricket career as she gets ready for her first outing as captain in a multi-format series against India.
Healy is taking over from Australia's long-time captain Meg Lanning, winner of two Women's Cricket World Cup and five ICC Women's World Twenty20 titles who also holds the record for the most Women's One Day International centuries and is the first Australian to score 2,000 Twenty20 International runs. Lanning announced her retirement from international cricket in November this year.
Healy could not be taking over at a more challenging time as she is returning from a hand injury suffered due to a dog bite to her right index finger. She had to undergo surgery to treat the injury and missed a major part of the Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) for the Sydney Sixers.
