All Rounder
Left-hand Bat
Right-arm Offspin
Aug 24, 1997
A highly talented all-rounder, Deepti Sharma has been one of the most consistent performers for Team India in the last few years. She brings plenty of qualities to the table, and that's why she is one of the best all-rounders in the business right now. A clever off-spinner, Deepti possesses the ability to outfox the batters with spin, flight, drift, and guile. She has the ability to bowl frugal spells, develop pressure, and pick wickets. She can bowl in the Powerplay, middle and the slog overs. A plucky left-handed batter, Deepti can bat in almost any position. She has opened the batting, batted in the middle, lower-middle, and lower order as well in international cricket, and is now regarded as one of the best finishers in the game.
Deepti first donned the Indian jersey at the young age of 17 years and 96 days, when she made her ODI debut against South Africa in Bengaluru in 2014, and impressed straight away with 2/35 from 10 overs. Soon she was breaking records as she smashed 188 (160) against Ireland in Potchefstroom, opening the batting — the second-highest individual score at the time in 50-over format. In the process, she added a record 320-run opening stand with Punam Raut —the first 300-run stand in Women's ODIs.
Two years later, she became the youngest Indian woman to scalp a five-for when she recorded figures of 6/20 against Sri Lanka in Ranchi. She made her T20I debut in the same year and impressed with 4-0-19-1 against Australia in Sydney. She started off her Test career on a bright note, picking up three wickets in the first innings and scoring 83 runs (29* in the first innings and 54 in the second), against England in Bristol in 2021. Sharma is the first Indian woman to register a double of 1000 runs and 100 wickets in T20Is.
After enduring a few World Cup heartbreaks over the past few years, it was Deepti's all-round brilliance in the 2025 ICC Women's Cricket World Cup that played a massive role in Team India's historic title victory. Player of the tournament Deepti also produced a match-winning 5-fer in the final.
