She highlighted the equal match fees, the introduction of the Women’s Premier League (WPL), and the overall support from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) as key factors in the development of women’s cricket in the country.
“The match fees are equal, and the BCCI looks after us well,” Deepti stated while speaking on the sidelines on Ceat Cricket Ratings Awards.
“The WPL has also started, and we are doing well. We want to excel in everything,” she acknowledged the positive impact of the WPL on young players, noting that the auction process plays a significant role in their careers.
