Issy Wong, a 20-year-old fast bowler from England, is set to realize her childhood dream by playing for the Mumbai Indians in the inaugural Women's Premier League (WPL). Wong reminisces about her early experiences watching the team, including a memorable match where Kieron Pollard led a dramatic victory. She was sold at the auction for ₹30 lakh (approximately $36,600) and is excited to reunite with coach Charlotte Edwards, who previously gave her a professional contract. Wong is eager to learn from Jhulan Goswami, Mumbai's bowling mentor, and aims to enhance her skills after being left out of the T20 World Cup squad. She has focused on personal development during this time, training intensively to improve her game. Wong acknowledges the rapid changes in women's cricket and is prepared for a busy schedule ahead, including regional matches and international series. The WPL presents a unique opportunity for her to gain experience and learn from some of the best players in the world, enriching her journey as a professional cricketer.
