    During World Premier League: With the Mumbai Indians’ squad witnessing a slight shuffle after the WPL 2026 mega auction, their curtain raiser against Royal Challengers Bengaluru saw G. Kamalini open the batting lineup for the two-time champions alongside Amelia Kerr, and head coach Lisa Keightley was all praises for the youngster and dubbed her a ‘fantastic player.’

    During World Premier League (WPL) 2025, Kamalini was included in MI’s playing XI for their league match against Gujarat Giants at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara, making her at 16 years and 213 days old the youngest player ever to play in the tournament. She also got to bat after Nat Sciver-Brunt was dismissed and executed a well-timed cut for a boundary on the first ball she faced.

    On Friday, Kamalini scored a 28-ball 32 while opening the lineup for the two-time champions and formed crucial partnerships with Kerr, Sciver, and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur.
