What happened (Raman’s prediction for the Women’s T20 Asia Cup in the UAE)
Former India coach W.V. Raman says India’s women’s team, led by Harmanpreet Kaur, is “on course for success” at the Women’s T20 Asia Cup. Raman’s core claim is that the team can win the tournament, which begins in the UAE, provided India converts earlier learning into better execution in the Asia Cup.
Background and earlier position (ICC Women’s T20 World Cup disappointment → motivation)
Raman points to India’s earlier disappointment at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, where the India team crashed in the group stage. Raman argues that the setback should motivate the players to perform better in the Asia Cup and to reset confidence and approach.
Raman also frames the Asia Cup as a stepping stone for the next ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, meaning the tournament is not only about winning matches but also about building form and match rhythm for the bigger event.
