Diana Edulji Calls for Split Captaincy, Relieving Harmanpreet Kaur in Some Formats
Former India women's cricket captain Diana Edulji has urged the BCCI to adopt a split-captaincy system, relieving Harmanpreet Kaur of leadership duties in at least one format. Edulji cited Harmanpreet's batting decline under captaincy pressure and recommended fresh leadership, suggesting Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma as potential successors. She also advocated for separate coaches for each format. Edulji's comments followed India's early exit from the ICC Women's T20 World Cup and contrast with Harmanpreet's retention as Asian Games captain.
