WPL Auction 2023: Shweta Sehrawat has been rewarded for her performance
New Delhi:
Last month, when the Indian women's U-19 team beat England by seven wickets to win the inaugural tournament, it was clear that the girls who shone in the tournament would be a draw in the Women's Premier League (WPL) auction. And it happened too.
Where money is showered heavily on senior players, then these Under-19 World Cup winning players have also started earning at a young age.
And as their performance improves further, it is obvious that their price will also increase.
India's Shweta Sehrawat scored the most runs in the Under-19 World Cup and she also left behind star Shefali Verma.
Shweta had shown that she is a future big star player by scoring 297 runs at an average of 99.00 in the same innings of 7 matches.
