How’s Happy Kumari Quest For Bowling Fast Landed Her A Spot In Gujarat Giants
SS Mody Cricket Academy: When Happy Kumari's name flashed on the WPL mega auction broadcast and Gujarat Giants (GG) picked her for a base price of Rs 10 lakh, her family back in Jhunjhunu erupted with joy.
Even as her neighbours burst crackers to celebrate the young pacer’s maiden foray into the tournament, Happy’s coach Ajay Kumar cried through that night and only spoke to her in the morning. The selection into WPL 2026 is a big step in the remarkable cricketing journey that began nearly five years ago.
"I was watching the auction at that time with my team-mates as I was there at the RCA facility. As soon as my name came up, Gujarat Giants raised their paddle very quickly, though I didn't see what happened till the end. But then I got to know that I will be playing for them in this WPL.
