The Indian player who played an explosive inning against Pakistan on December 15 in the Women’s Under-19 Asia Cup, a few minutes later bids worth crores were placed on her in the Women’s IPL i.e. WPL. The interesting thing is that the bid for that player started with only Rs 10 lakh, which within a short time went beyond Rs 1 crore.
