Smriti Mandhana backs India's bowling depth ahead of Champions Trophy

India wrapped up a 3-0 T20I sweep against Zimbabwe in Raipur on Tuesday, winning by 92 runs. The series marked Mandhana's first outing as full-time captain.

She used the three matches to shuffle the batting order and gave six different bowlers a chance. Nandani Sharma finished with six wickets across the series, while Kranti Gaud and Niki Prasad each picked up three.

The six-team Women's Champions Trophy starts on February 14 next year and will be split between Mumbai and Vadodara. Evening dew was a factor in Raipur, and the same conditions are expected to shape the tournament in February.
