Jemimah Rodrigues, Shafali Verma and Richa Ghosh are all set to play critical role India’s campaign this year. “Only Thailand team can give us competition in terms of dressing room atmosphere”, Smriti said, “We love to dance, sing and play some games to influence the team bonding in a positive way”.
