Can such a scenario, where one of the teams is dismissed for a single-digit total, be attributed to just poor execution, or are there deeper systemic issues within the selection process and overall framework of women's cricket in Rajasthan?
Recently, in the Rajasthan Womens Senior T20 Championship, Rajasthans Sirohi womens team was dismissed for four runs against Sikar. It is important to note that this was not a one-off incident, with the team having scored in double digits only once in the last three seasons. Given this repeated poor performance, fingers are being pointed at the selection process and the administration of women's cricket in the state.
This incident raises questions about the selection criteria for the team, the training and development of players, and the overall structure and support provided to women's cricket in the region. While these processes may be entirely fair and unbiased, the resulting outcomes are leading observers to wonder if more attention is being paid to other areas, leaving little residue for the women's game to flourish genuinely.
Despite there being no official word from the authorities, this incident may act as a wake-up call and prompt necessary changes to create a more comprehensive and inclusive women's cricket framework. The lack of runs isn't necessarily a problem with the players; it could be a lack of support and opportunity.
It is worth considering what needs to be done to create a pathway for women to succeed and flourish in cricket, at a time when the women's game is slowly grabbing headlines and gaining recognition, unlike ever before.
