Who is Priya Mishra?
Priya Mishra has earned a lot of name in domestic cricket with her leg spin. She came into limelight during the India A team's tour of Australia earlier this year, where she had an impressive performance by taking six wickets in an unofficial Test match and five wickets in the third ODI.
Place in Indian team after excellent performance
Priya's career progressed in the 2023-24 Senior Women's One-Day Trophy, where she caught everyone's attention with her spin bowling. She became the highest wicket taker in this tournament with 23 wickets. His variations and fast turner made him a strong contender for selection in the national team.
Opportunity for selection in WPL 2024
During the recently held WPL 2024, Gujarat Giants also recognized his talent, although he did not get a chance to play. But this selection gave an indication to his career that he would soon get an opportunity to enter the national team. Now, with her debut in the second ODI against New Zealand, Priya has got a chance to prove herself.
India's lead in the series
India had won the first match by a solid 59 runs, due to which they are leading 1-0 in the series. This time the New Zealand team has entered the field with the hope of making a comeback and they won the toss and decided to bat first. The Indian team has also made changes in its line-up, in which the inclusion of Priya Mishra can prove to be an important decision.
New Zealand's challenge
Priya Mishra's spin bowling can prove to be an X-factor for the Indian team, because the New Zealand team may have to struggle to face Indian spin in this match.
