Jagravi has emerged as a consistent performer and can be relied upon for breakthroughs.

Tanuja Kanwer
The 26-year-old left-arm off-spinner excelled across formats last domestic season, and though she has had a quiet start to this season, she has bagged 5 wickets from 6 outings in the 2024 Senior Women’s T20 Trophy. Tanuja can be relied upon to step up with improved bowling efforts and also chip in with handy runs.
