Due to a major controversy, this legendary West Indies player had missed the opening season of the tournament. She remained unsold the next year. Dottin is ready to try his luck in the tournament once again. In the T20 World Cup in UAE, he scored 120 runs at a strike rate of 162.16, which is the best for any batsman who faced at least 20 balls. After this, in the WBBL, he played an important role in helping Melbourne Renegades win the championship. Teams like Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals and UP Warriors can benefit from having such power hitters in their middle order.

UP Warriors have released Lauren Bell. England’s 23-year-old young pacer Bell can prove to be the X factor for any team, who knows how to swing the ball both ways. The vine gets a strong bounce. This July he took his first five-wicket haul in an ODI against New Zealand. Warriors head coach John Lewis has not ruled out Bell’s return, but Gujarat Giants and Mumbai Indians can also buy him.
Pratika Rawal
Tanisha Rawal, who started playing cricket at the age of 10, is a psychology student. She first came into limelight in 2021 when she scored unbeaten 161 runs in 155 balls to take Delhi to the knockout in the domestic ODI tournament. Earlier this year, she captained Delhi in their unbeaten campaign in the final of the Under-23 T20 Trophy, where she finished as her team’s second-highest run-scorer (182 runs) behind Tanishaa. Pratika has also got a place in India’s ODI team for the West Indies series.

Raghavi Bisht, who has strong batting skills on the off side, scored three consecutive half-centuries during a one-day match against Australia A in August. In the third match, he also played a match-winning inning of 53 runs. Recently, he was included in the Indian squad for the first time for the home T20 match against West Indies. She is continuously flying the flag in domestic cricket. She was also a part of Uttarakhand’s successful Under-19 women’s one-day campaign in 2021 and 2022. Last month, he led his team to the title by scoring 71 runs in 51 balls in the final of the T20 Challenger Trophy.
Tanisha Singh
21-year-old Tanisha Singh showed a glimpse of her batting ability when she scored 94 runs in just 50 balls for Delhi against Assam in the Senior Women’s T20 Trophy in October. In the 50-over edition, she was the fifth-highest run-scorer with 359 runs in seven innings at an average of 71.80 and a strike rate of 104.97. She also bowls off-spin and is adept at deceiving the batsmen with her variation and flight. This year, in the Delhi Premier League (DPL), she was also the third highest run-scorer in the tournament with five wickets and 121 runs in four matches. Tanisha also played an important role in Delhi winning the title in the Under-23 women’s tournament in January.
