In this article, we will examine the highly rated overseas players in The Hundred League Women.
The Hundred League just ended on August 18, in which Oval Invincibles from the Men’s League won the title and London Spirits from the Women’s League. The league was a total roller coaster ride, and many entertaining moments were created during the span of this tournament.
Along with the native players, there were some overseas superstars as well who added spice to the tournament and made it enticing for the audience.
Let’s have a look at those enticing overseas players of the tournament.
Georgia Redmayne
The Australian wicketkeeper batter managed to make 229 runs in the Hundred League. She was the 3rd highest scorer of the tournament with an average of 28.62, played for the London Spirits, and was the player of the match in the finals of the league against Welsh Fire. She made 34 out of 32 balls and helped the team chase 116 runs to win the match and title of the tournament.
Deepti Sharma
An Indian all-rounder who played for the London Spirits managed to be the 7th highest run scorer with 212 runs in total out of 6 innings, where she had the outstanding stat of not being out of the fast-paced format where players start hitting and taking risks from the first ball they face. She gave so many absolute wonder performances, which include 16 runs not out in the finals, where she played sensibly to chase out a fairly subtle target of 116 in the finals of the Hundred League against Welsh Fire.
Laura Wolvaardt
The South African opening batter who played for Manchester Originals in the Hundred League and ended the tournament being the 6th highest scorer of the tournament. She managed to make 215 runs in 7 innings, which included one half century and the 2nd highest individual score of the tournament (78*).

She was a part of Welsh Fire and managed to pick up 12 wickets with an impressive economy of 6.62 in such a fast-paced format. Unfortunately, she was not able to take any wickets in the finals of the tournament against the London Spirits but stopped the flow of runs for the opposition by giving only 16 runs in 18 balls.
