By IANS News January 22, 2026 • 14:40 PM View: 457

Royal Challengers Bengaluru: India's seam bowling all-rounder Pooja Vastrakar has returned from injury and joined the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) squad for the remainder of the Women's Premier League (WPL) 2026 on Thursday.

Vastrakar had been out of competitive action since late 2024 due to a shoulder injury.

She underwent rehabilitation at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru and was to link up with RCB ahead of the fourth edition of WPL. But two days before her release, she picked up an unfortunate hamstring injury and had to spend more time at CoE.
