Women’s Challenger Trophy: The tournament featured several India players though most of the cricketers who competed in the Women’s Big Bash League in Australia were given rest.

Seasoned left-arm spinner Rajeshwari Gayakwad was impressive yet again, taking four wickets for 36 runs in 10 overs though her effort came in a losing cause.

Spinner V Chandu, who played for India B, ended as the leading wicket taker in the tournament with 10 scalps in three games.

Meghana ended as the highest run-getter with 207 runs at an average of 51.75.

India T20 regular Harleen Deol also had a good tournament with the bat, scoring 181 runs in three games.
