Shafali Verma has been named in the team for the first time since India's World Cup opener against Pakistan. "We wanted to strengthen the top-order," is what Mithali Raj mentioned during the toss.

This means that Yastika Bhatia is expected to move down the order with Verma opening alongside Mandhana.
