ENG vs IND: Radha Yadav becomes second Indian to pick 100 wickets in WT20Is
All-rounder Radha Yadav became only the second Indian to take 100 wickets in women’s T20Is during the third match between England Women and India Women at the Oval in London on Friday.
She joins Deepti Sharma in the list of Indians to achieve the feat — the all-rounder sits third in the top wicket-takers list with 140 wickets.
The spinner crossed the landmark in her 87th match, when she claimed the wicket of stand-in England skipper Tammy Beaumont.
Though Radha was not originally named in the travelling squad, she was roped in as a replacement for Shuchi Upadhyay, who picked up a left shin injury ahead of the series.
