If there’s one player who is known for her accurate wicket-to-wicket bowling and outstanding fielding, it is Radha Yadav. Born in Mumbai, in a very humble family, Radha made it to the international stage on the back of sheer skills and talent.

At a very young age, coach Prafful Naik, saw her play cricket with the boys in her society’s compound and decided to train her. She started her career with the Mumbai team, before moving to Baroda.

In 2018, she made her debut for India in a T20I match against South Africa. Later in that year, she was part of India’s T20 World Cup squad in the West Indies, where she ended as the joint-leading wicket-taker for her side. Soon, she became a regular for the Indian team in the T20I format.
In the next couple of years, she was part of the 2020 T20 World Cup squad of India when the side finished runners-up. She was also part of the Silver Medal-winning team at the Commonwealth Games 2022 along with the Asia Cup triumph in Bangladesh that same year.

As of 2023, she has featured in more than 50 T20Is for India and has a wickets tally of 62. She has also featured in the Women’s Big Bash League for the Sydney Sixers. Now, she joins the Capitals Universe for the inaugural Women’s Premier League.
