WPL 2025: UP Warriorz’ Saima Thakor Setting Sights On Women’s ODI World Cup Glory
ODI World Cup: Seam-bowling all-rounder Saima Thakor came into limelight by dismissing Harmanpreet Kaur with a ripper of a delivery in WPL 2024 for UP Warriorz. After that tournament, where she took three wickets in six games, Saima found her way into the India ODI set-up.
On her debut against New Zealand in Ahmedabad last year, Saima took 2-26 in her seven overs and now has ten wickets in seven ODI games. She also shared a crucial 70-run partnership with Radha Yadav in the second ODI, as they made a record for the highest ninth-wicket stand for India women's team.
Tipped by UPW head coach Jon Lewis to lead the charge in Indian fast-bowling department, Saima endured a challenging time in WPL 2025, where she couldn't secure a wicket in her four appearances as the side finished at the bottom of the points table.
