Players to watch out:
Parushi Prabhakar
The 18-year-old batter began her campaign with a solid 27 and capitalized on the start by scoring an impressive 34-ball 62 in her very next outing. Riding high on confidence, Parushi has maintained her form with scores of 3 (9), 52 (34), and 24 (15). She is also the leading run-scorer for the side with 212 runs to her name from 6 outings.
Kashvee Gautam
The 20-year-old is a fantastic up-and-coming all-rounder who earlier this year represented India A in the Emerging Teams Asia Cup. Kashvee has captained her side in this tournament and led from the front with the ball, taking 12 wickets from 6 games. She has also made a valuable contribution with the bat, accumulating 90 runs.
Yuvashri Karthikeyan
The 18-year-old batter has had a string of starts against her name this tournament but has often fallen short of converting those starts. Yuvashri kicked off her campaign with a decent 26 and in her most recent game, she scored a fine 38. In total, Yuvashri has added 114 runs to the tally from 6 games and will be seen as a promising talent worth investing in.
Tamanna Nigam
The 28-year-old all-rounder has had an excellent campaign this edition, making contributions with both the bat and ball. Although Tamanna initially managed starts in her outings, she capitalized on them by scoring 40 runs in her most recent match.
