By Sabyasachi Chowdhury: Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana are the two Indians who will be taking part in the upcoming edition of the Women’s Hundred to be played later this year.

Harmanpreet played for the Manchester Originals, but will now ply her trade for the Trent Rockets. Mandhana has been with the Southern Brave since the inaugural edition and has stayed with them. Harmanpreet was picked in the first round at a price of 31,250 dollars.

Harmanpreet was among the players in the top bracket, along with Sophia Dunkley, Shabnim Ismail, Grace Harris, Heather Knight, Laura Wolvaardt, Sophie Ecclestone, Kate Cross, Alyssa Healy, Sophie Devine, Amy Jones, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Danielle Wyatt, Mandhana, Suzie Bates and Marizanne Kapp.

Harmanpreet is currently playing for the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL). She will lead the team in the Eliminator against Alyssa Healy’s UP Warriorz.
