The award capped a remarkable turnaround for Verma, who had earlier been dropped from the national squad before returning to domestic cricket to rediscover form.
A late call-up to India’s World Cup squad, Shafali produced a defining all-round display in the final, top-scoring with 87 off 78 balls at a strike rate of 111.53 to set up India’s historic triumph.
