Under Mithali Raj, Railways beat Jharkhand by seven wickets in the final at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium. Interestingly, only twice have Railways not won the title since its inception in 2006-07.
Speaking to Sports Today, Mithali Raj said that Railways were desperate to win after not capturing the title in the last two years. They lost to Bengal in the semi-final in 2018-19, while the event was not held last year due to COVID-19.
An ecstatic Mithali Raj said:
We want to have a compact unit: Mithali Raj
Mithali Raj attributed the team’s success to collective contributions from all members of the team. She said in this regard:
Mithali Raj was the captain when the Indian Women’s team recently took on South Africa in a five-match home ODI series, which the hosts lost 1-4.
Meanwhile, the 38-year-old Mithali Raj joined Railways for the knockout stage of the recently-concluded 2021 Senior Women’s One-Day Trophy.
