BCCI Announces Women Central Contract List: 3 Players Earn Grade A Contract

Here is the full list of BCCI Women Cricketers' Central Contracts

The Board of Cricket Council of India (BCCI) has announced the central contract list for Indian women cricketers. Only three women players have managed to earn a Grade A contract in contrast to the five players who earned it last year.

The Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur, vice-captain Smriti Mandhana and the all-rounder Deepti Sharma are the three players on the Grade A list. On the other hand, Rajeshwari Gayakwad has dropped to Grade B and Poonam Yadav has missed out on a contract altogether.

Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh and Renuka Thakur have earned a Grade B contract this year. They were previously part of Grade C contracted players. Shafali Verma has again earned a Grade B contract.
