At the same time, the Indian team has weakened due to injuries to veteran goalkeeper Savita and drag flicker Deepika. Savita is out due to ankle injury that she was engaged during the practice session. Sakshi is playing instead of Deepika. Forward and drag flicker Deepika have performed brilliantly in the last few years. Not playing these two will lead to captain Salima Tete, Navneet Kaur, Udita, Neha, Sharmila Devi and Lalremsiami.
