Meanwhile, a user congratulated Rodrigues on making Smriti Mandhana dance, stating that Rodrigues could now add this accomplishment to her CV now.
In the 2021 season, Jemimah Rodrigues made her WBBL debut for the Melbourne Renegades. Harmanpreet Kaur, like Rodrigues, has joined the Renegades ahead of the current season. Rodrigues top-scored for the squad with 33 runs in WBBL 2021 match no. 2, while Harmanpreet Kaur hit 24 runs off 19 balls and won the match for her side against Hobart Hurricanes.
The defending WBBL winners Sydney Thunder, on the other hand, have recruited Indian opener Smriti Mandhana ahead of the tournament. She previously played for the Brisbane Heat, but in her Thunder debut against the Adelaide Strikers, she had a mediocre effort, scoring only four runs and returning to the pavilion. Meanwhile, Radha Yadhav grabbed headlines with a spectacular one-handed catch during Sydney Sixers' second WBBL match versus Hobart Hurricanes. She also contributed two crucial wickets as the Sixers went on to win the match.
Hobart Hurricanes signed Poonam Yadav for the 2021 season, although she has yet to play her first match.
