It came as a shock when the Indian team dropped Shafali Verma back in November 2024 for the Australian tour. Despite being just 21 years old, everyone wanted her to make a strong statement with her performances and that is exactly what the batting sensation has been doing. After a successful domestic campaign, Shafali turned the heat up in the Delhi Capitals’ opening WPL 2025 clash against the Mumbai Indians (MI). Opening the batting alongside captain Meg Lanning, Shafali blunted a blazing knock that saw her smack 22 runs in a single over.
