Former Indian cricketer Reema Malhotra praised Jemimah Rodrigues for markedly improving her batting following her participation in the Women’s Premier League (WPL). Malhotra noted that the high-level exposure, intense competition and rigorous training in the franchise setup sharpened Rodrigues’ intent and clarity at the crease. She credited WPL’s structure with boosting the World Cup-winning batter’s confidence and adaptability in international cricket. The change was evident in Rodrigues’ recent stellar performances—combining technique and aggression effectively. Malhotra believes the WPL is “raising the bar” for India’s women cricketers and helping talents like Rodrigues flourish.
