The Hundred: Smriti Mandhana, Richa Ghosh Only Indians Picked Up In 2024 Draft
The Hundred Draft Picks: India duo of left-handed opener Smriti Mandhana and wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh are the only players from the country to have been picked for participating in the 2024 The Hundred season via its draft.
While Smriti returns to Southern Brave, the side with whom she won the championship last season, Richa will head to Birmingham Phoenix for the upcoming season, after being a part of the London Spirit last year.
As many as 17 Indian players had registered for The Hundred draft, but only Smriti and Richa, who were a part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore side which won the second edition of the Women’s Premier League, found takers for the 2024 season of the competition, starting on July 23, when Birmingham Phoenix face Oval Invincibles.
