New Delhi: India has suffered two consecutive defeats in the Womens ODI World Cup 2025. These defeats against South Africa and Australia have jeopardised Team Indias chances of reaching the semifinals. Now India must win all its remaining matches to secure a top-4 spot. This situation places immense pressure on captain Harmanpreet Kaur. Harmanpreets performance in this tournament has also been poor scoring 21 19 9 and 22 runs respectively so far. Harmanpreets struggles compared to other Indian batsmen Most Indian batsmen have been scoring runs since the start of the tournament. Pratika Rawal Smriti Mandhana Harleen Deol Jemimah Rodrigues and Richa Ghosh have all scored more than 30 runs while Harmanpreet has managed only 22. This clearly highlights Team Indias weak position. Fans anger and social media reactions Fans took to social media to demand Harmanpreets removal as captain citing the teams faltering performance under her captaincy. They say the teams batting is in its worst state ever and that a change is needed. Get rid of Harmanpreet Kaur as soon as possible. She alone is responsible for half of the problems rarely scores never bowls but behave like Ellyse Perry. She doesn’t have any plans for Healey bowling looking clueless. #INDWvsAUSW #INDvsAUS — THIRD UMPIRE (@thirdumpireX) October 12 2025 Harmanpreet Kaur has been captain of the Indian women’s cricket team for 12 years.
