Live WPL Auction 2023: The auction for the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) is all set to be held in Mumbai on Monday

Indian and Pakistan women’s cricket team players were all smiles as they met in the dressing room after the conclusion of the T20 World Cup clash between the two teams.

Rodrigues, who hit a match-winning 38-ball unbeaten 53 in a seven-wicket win in India’s Women’s T20 World Cup opener on Sunday, said at one point of time she even contemplated quitting the game.

Opting to bat on Sunday night, Bangladesh posted a paltry 126 for 8, which Sri Lanka eclipsed in 18.2 overs by reaching 129 for 3.

A total of 409 players will go under the hammer during the auction of the inaugural edition of WPL, which will be taking place on February 13, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced.

Jemimah struck eight boundaries while Richa hit five fours during their unbeaten knocks as India reached 151 for 3 in 19 overs, their highest successful chase in the T20 World Cup.

Star Indian batter Virat Kohli also congratulated Women in Blue for their win in a “high-pressure game” and said that leaps being taken by women’s side in every tournament is going to inspire a generation of women.

Jemimah Rodrigues hit an undefeated 53 off 38 deliveries to steer her side to a seven-wicket win in Cape Town as India chased down their 150-run target with six balls to spare.

India’s third Test against Australia shifted from Dharamsala to Indore due to unfit playing conditions.

Rohit Sharma was praised for his performance in the Test match where almost all Australian batsmen struggled against the spin attack.
