After being dropped following India’s group-stage exit at the T20 World Cup last October, Shafali returned to the national setup for the T20I series against England. She finished as the second-highest run-scorer in the series with 176 runs at an impressive strike rate of 158.55, with scores of 20, 3, 47, 31, and a blistering 75 off 41 balls on Saturday.
“Shafali has been a terrific player. There’s no doubt that she will be in the mix. She will be amongst the core group of India. There’s no doubt in my mind about it,” Muzumdar said.
