Bio:
Young left-arm spinner Rashi Kanojiya from Agra had no shortage of inspiring figures when she began playing cricket at the age of eight at the Eklavya Stadium. Among those she looked up to were Hemlata Kala, the first from the city of the Taj Mahal to play for India; Priti Dimri, a slow left-arm spinner who played 26 international matches, including two Tests; leg-spinner Poonam Yadav; and current India all-rounder Deepti Sharma. Kanojiya comes from a middle-class family; her mother is a teacher, and her father is a retired army official.
In the 2022 Women’s T20 Challenge, she played for the Supernovas. Kanojiya appeared in the final match of the tournament, where the Supernovas emerged victorious. However, her contributions in terms of individual performance in that match were limited, as she did not take any wickets and did not get an opportunity to bat.
Kanojiya took eight wickets in the Senior Women’s One-Day Trophy in the 2018-19 season, six wickets in the T20 Trophy, 10 wickets in the Senior Women’s Inter-Zonal T20 for the 2022-23 season, and three wickets in the T20 Challenger Trophy. Although she hasn’t played in the Women’s Premier League as of 2024, she received her maiden call-up for the national side in the series against Bangladesh. She made her debut in the third T20 match of the three-match series.
