Born in Siliguri, West Bengal, Richa Ghosh honed her skills in the local cricket scene and quickly rose through the ranks, catching the attention of selectors with her batting prowess and wicketkeeping abilities. She made her debut in domestic cricket, representing Bengal in age-group tournaments. Her performances at the junior level showcased her potential, and she soon found herself making strides in senior women's cricket.
Richa represents the new generation of Indian women cricketers who are breaking barriers and making their mark on the international stage.
She made her international debut for the Indian women's cricket team in a T20I against England in February 2019. Her aggressive batting style and ability to play big shots made an immediate impact, earning her a spot in the limited-overs squads. Notably, Richa made headlines with a stunning knock in her third T20I against West Indies in November 2019. She scored a quick-fire 36 off 26 balls, exhibiting her aggressive batting style.
Richa was only 16 when she was named in India’s squad for the 2020 ICC T20 World Cup and had already played a senior T20 World Cup and ODI World Cup before representing India in the inaugural U-19 women's T20 World Cup in 2023. Later that year, she made her Test debut and became an all-format international for India at just 20 years old.
Richa has cemented her spot as India’s go-to wicketkeeper-batter. Her crucial knocks in the slog overs, including the final, played a key role in India’s 50-over World Cup title win in 2025.
