Ghosh is set to make her WBBL debut and has joined Smriti Mandhana and Deepti Sharma (Sydney Thunder), Shafali Verma and Radha Yadav (Sydney Sixers), and Jemimah Rodrigues and Harmanpreet Kaur (Melbourne Renegades) to feature in the 2021 edition of the Australian T20 league.
Ghosh, who celebrated her 18th birthday this week, has a wealth of experience playing in Australia.
Ghosh made her international debut at last year바카라s Tri-National Women바카라s T20 series in the lead-up to the T20 World Cup, before representing India in the format바카라s flagship tournament, where they finished runners-up.
With a T20 international strike rate in excess of 100, Ghosh also made her ODI debut on Australian soil last month, as part of India바카라s multi-format Australian tour.
바카라I바카라m very excited to be playing in the WBBL this year,바카라 Ghosh said in a statement posted on Hobart Hurricanes website. 바카라I바카라m very thankful to the Hurricanes for this opportunity, and I바카라m looking forward to coming to Tasmania and meeting up with my new teammates.바카라
Ghosh has been roped in as a replacement for Lizelle Lee, who had recently withdrawn from the tournament, citing a need to take an indefinite break from cricket after countless overseas tournaments, bubbles and quarantine requirements.
