Richa Ghosh is one of India’s most talented young cricketers, known for her explosive batting and composure under pressure. Royal Challengers Bangalore secured her for a massive INR 1.90 crore at the inaugural WPL auction, recognizing her game-changing abilities. She had a brilliant 2024 season, being RCB’s third-highest run-getter with 257 runs, scoring at a strike rate of 141.8—the second highest in the team. She registered two fifties, including a top score of 62 against UP Warriorz. The 21-year-old also equaled the world record for the fastest fifty in women’s T20Is, reaching the milestone in just 18 balls against West Indies later in 2024. A proven match-winner, Richa scored the winning runs for RCB in WPL 2024, and the team will once again rely on her finishing prowess in crunch moments this season in their quest to retain the title.
