The hosts faced a major blow just ahead of the ODI series as the vice-skipper Harmanpreet Kaur gets ruled out of the ODI series following an ankle injury. Kaur sustained the injury a few days ago and was unable to make it to the training sessions ahead of the ODI series. The management has named an uncapped 20-year-old all-rounder Harleen Deol as the replacement in the ODI series while Harmanpreet Kaur will head to the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru for her treatment.
