Rani Jhansi Trophy: A Showcase of talent
The recently concluded CricInfo Rani Jhansi Trophy in Chennai threw up
some good induvidual performances, not only from the
international stars but also players who are knocking
at the doors of national selection. Players like Seema
Pujari, Smitha Harikrishna, Neetu Singh and Rumeli
Dhar came out from the shadows and really showcased
their talent.
Champions Air India, with internationals like Anju
Jain, Anjum Chopra, and captain Purnima Rau in their
ranks time and again made short work of the
opposition. But off-spinner Seema Pujari was chiefly
instrumental in laying the platform for an Air India
win on more than one occasion. She showed a much wiser
head on her shoulders when she gave the ball flight
and extracted turn and bounce from the pitch to
trouble the batswomen.
