WPL 2023: 5 Indian all-rounders to watch out for
In the forthcoming tournament, all eyes are set on these Indian all-rounders as their franchises have shown faith in them after analyzing their spectacular international statistics.
2. Pooja Vastrakar
Before the WPL Player Auction, Pooja Vastrakar was one of the favourites to attract decent money. For the event, her basic amount was set as INR 50 lakh but due to her exceptional all-round skills, MI and DC showed interest in her. In the end, MI fetched her for paying a hefty sum of INR 1.9 crore.
In the international circle, her records for the national team are overwhelming as an all-rounder. So far, the youngster has claimed 30 wickets in 47 T20Is at an economy of 6.14. With her bat too, she has scored 261 runs in 30 innings at a decent strike rate of 124.28.
In her maiden T20 World Cup appearance recently, Vastrakar failed to show up with both bat and ball. As a premier bowler of the team, she scalped only two wickets in four matches at an economy of 7.21. However, after receiving the enormous price at the auction, the 23-year-old will have a new motvation to perform with her all-round talent and justify the faith of the franchise.
