Top 5 Indians to Watch in Small Auctions
Snerana
All-rounder Sneh Rana is probably the most eye-catching player in this auction pool. The 30-year-old is looking for a team after being axed by the Gujarat Giants.
However, Rana’s WPL record is mediocre, taking only 6 wickets in 12 matches. However, the off-spinner has also performed well in other games, taking 10 wickets in a Test match against South Africa in June.
Cameron G
Young Tamil Nadu batsman Kamalini G has emerged as one of the most popular players in the auction pool after his impressive performances in the domestic tournament of late.
The 16-year-old Kamalini finished second in the U19 Women’s T20 Cup with 311 runs in eight games, helping Tamil Nadu win the title in October. Most notable was her six-hit ability, with the left-handed hitter notching her 10th highest hit in the tournament.

Nandini Kashyap
Nandini Kashyap is expected to attract some attention at the auction after being called up to the senior women’s national team for the first time.
The Uttarakhand batsman had a stellar performance in the domestic arena and became the third scorer in the 2023 Senior Women’s T20 Trophy. Nandini continued her golden ball career by claiming the top run-scoring title in the 2024 Senior Women’s T20 Challenger Trophy.

Right-arm medium pacer Jagravi Pawar has made a huge splash recently in the Senior Women’s T20 Trophy, where she topped the list of wicket-takers and helped Mumbai clinch the title.
She took 16 wickets in 11 innings with an economy coefficient of just 4.02, which shows Pawar’s ability to contain the opposition batsmen.

Ravi Bist
Another Uttarakhand batsman who will be part of the auction is Raghvi Bist. Just like Nandini, she too was recently selected for the national team for the first time.
Bicester has been in fine form domestically and has managed to translate that form into a performance for the ‘A’ team, scoring three consecutive ODI 50s against Australia A away from home.
