Follow UsAll eight teams in The Hundred have now confirmed their full squads as the final round of signings in the women’s competition have been announced.
Indian wicket-keeper Richa Ghosh, England seam bowler Lauren Filer and Mahika Gaur, a young bowler who’s making waves in domestic cricket at Thunder, are three stand-out signings in the women’s competition.
Lauren Filer said: “I absolutely can’t wait to play at Lord’s in The Hundred for London Spirit. It will be great to link up with Heather Knight, and it’s obviously so special to play at the home of cricket. It’s just a brilliant competition, with some of the best players in the world, and I’m really looking forward to being a part of it.”
Ghosh joins London Spirit as a replacement for the injured Georgia Redmayne, with Oval Invincibles’ Tash Farrant and Trent Rockets’ Emma Jones replaced by Lizzie Scott and Cassidy McCarthy respectively. Leah Dobson has replaced Phoebe Franklin at Northern Superchargers.
