Rodrigues will play for the Trinbago Knight Riders in the WCPL, and they are set to lock horns with the defending champions Barbados Royals in their opening fixture on Friday. "Firstly, just to come out and play cricket because for me, that's how I see it before the (Women's) T20 World Cup (2024). I think these are the matches that I'm actually going to get as rest all will be my own preparation," Rodrigues said in an interaction organised by the Fancode. "The more you're in that situation and in those pressure moments, I think that's the best preparation you can have. So, for me, I look at it (WCPL) more as a preparation for the T20 World Cup," she added. Rodrigues reiterated that she would be securing takeaways that could help her shape her batting approach in the coming World Cup, which will take place in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) next month. "Really looking forward to…a few things that I'm working on at nets and I am trying to implement them here. "Because when you do it in practice, it's different. But when you do it in a match, it's way different." However, Rodrigues has an immediate goal ahead of her, helping the Knight Riders win the WCPL title. "At the same time, I have an added responsibility playing for TKR to do whatever I can to make sure my team wins in the end," she added. Rodrigues has played 100 T20Is for India, scoring 2074 runs at an average of 30.50 and strike rate of 114.26. She has hit 11 half-centuries in the shortest international format and will be one of the key batters in the Indian line-up for the upcoming World Cup.
