Srinagar: Sole woman Cricketer from Kashmir Valley up for auction has gone unsold at a ceremony underway at Mumbai.

Jasia (35), who had become the only woman Cricketer to feature in WPL after being bought by Delhi for a base price of ₹20 Lakh in last edition, failed to attract the bidders as she went unsold in the second round of the auction for the WPL edition 2024.

Jasia, a resident of Braripora village, some 63 kms south of Srinagar, is a right-hand top order batter who has made her foray into Women’s T20 cricket at various national level tournaments.
