Mithali Raj, who became the leading run-scorer in women's ODI history earlier this year, has hinted she might play in the 2021 ICC Women's World Cup. Raj led India to the final at the ICC Women's World Cup where they fell to the indomitable host in front of a packed Lord's crowd. But while the charismatic India captain had earlier declared that the prestigious quadrennial event in 2017 would be her last, she on Monday hinted at a possible appearance at the 2021 edition in New Zealand too.
