Mandhana continued to bat for two overs after being hit before retiring hurt on 12. Now, the batter is stable and her progress will be monitored by the medical team before India’s warm-up match against West Indies.
Here are a few Tweets from the angry fans
Among the six teams that are playing in #CWC22 warm-ups today, only one teams social media handle has nothing to say about it in the last 6-7 hours. No prizes for guessing who that is. Just incredibly annoying, it’s becoming.

What a letdown it was. Absolutely shameful. Not enough amount of words are enough to slam such blatant unprofessionalism. Hope @BCCIWomen is listening to the fans. This is not how you cover a grand event like World Cup. #CWC22 https://t.co/22FQjNHVSW

If @BCCI can’t do the bare minimum of running the @BCCIWomen a/c efficiently then they should just announce that they have no interest in growing the women’s game,they want all the control but no accountability that comes along.
That way,at least there will be no expectations.
