India women batted out the entire day 4 of the one-off Test vs England to earn a draw.
England women stayed on top for the majority of the Test match which began on June 16, but in the second innings, India women, after being asked to follow-on, showed great grit and determination, thanks to incredible knocks from Shafali Verma, Deepti Sharma, Sneh Rana, and Taniya Bhatia.
“I think India Women were fantastic. The way that they saved the Test match, they had the fight right till the end. They don’t have much experience in that regard as what England do. They are not too off the mark. I am really looking forward to them playing against Australia," Hogg said in a video uploaded on his YouTube channel.
“With the youth that is coming through right now, I would probably give them four years before they start to get dominant like the men’s team. They might be the team to beat in four years’ time and might knock Australia off the mantle in that regard," he added.
Hogg further said that the women’s teams should play five-day Test matches.
“I think they should play five-day Test matches. I also feel there should be more than one game in a series, there should be a three-match Test series. Women’s cricket is improving and the only way in which you can improve more is by playing more Test cricket," Hogg added.
