Delhi Capitals Sign 15-Year-Old Uma Kashvi as Youngest Player in WPL History
Uma Kashvi, a 15-year-old all-rounder from Karnataka, became the youngest player ever signed in the Women's Premier League (WPL) when Delhi Capitals acquired her for Rs 10 lakh. Known for her right-handed batting and off-spin bowling, Kashvi has represented India Under-19 and achieved notable performances in domestic tournaments. Her signing breaks the previous record held by Deeya Yadav and highlights Delhi Capitals' focus on nurturing young talent. Kashvi's WPL debut may be delayed due to her participation in the upcoming Under-19 World Cup.
