Radha Yadav is a skilled left-arm orthodox spinner who has established herself as one of India’s premier wicket-taking bowlers in women’s cricket. The 26-year-old from Mumbai made her international debut as a teenager in 2018 and has since become a vital cog in India’s white-ball setup, particularly in T20Is where she has amassed over 100 wickets. With 103 wickets in 89 WT20I matches at an impressive average of 19.09, she ranks among India’s most successful spinners in the format. Her ability to bowl economical spells while consistently taking wickets has made her a key player in franchise leagues as well, representing teams in the Women’s Premier League, where she has featured for both Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, as well as in the WBBL for Sydney Sixers. An economical bowler with a sharp cricketing brain, Radha’s variations and ability to bowl in the powerplay and middle overs make her a complete T20 spinner.
