Women’s ODI WC: The WPL Effect On Shaping India’s Squad For The Marquee Event
ODI World Cup: When India take the field for their 2025 Women's ODI World Cup opener against Sri Lanka at the ACA Stadium in Guwahati on Tuesday, it will do so as a squad powered by a phenomenon that didn't exist in the last edition of this marquee event: the Women's Premier League (WPL).
Charani and Kranti’s World Cup call-ups mark a post-WPL shift in selection boldness from India as well. With just respective single-digit appearances in ODIs so far, their standout 2025 WPL performances propelled them to get into the national set-up much earlier, something which wasn’t a possibility in the pre-WPL era.
Charani's breakthrough came during India’s twin series win in England, with her control, fearlessness, and composure under pressure being hallmarks of a player who had learned to thrive in high-stakes environments.
