The 15-member World Cup squad, led by captain Harmanpreet Kaur and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana, will participate in the sessions. Reserve players, including those returning from the ‘A’ team tour of Australia, will also join the camp to ensure squad depth and competitive practice.

Holding the camp in Vizag will give the players valuable familiarity with the conditions where these high-stakes encounters will take place.

This training camp will be the team’s final preparation before the World Cup kicks off on September 30, 2025. For the players, it will be an opportunity to refine their game plans, adjust to the coastal city’s playing environment, and enter the tournament with confidence.

With the eyes of the cricketing world set on India, this camp in Vizag bringing in the Indian Women’s Cricket team, marks an important step in the team’s mission to deliver a strong performance in the World Cup.
