About Harmanpreet Kaur (C)

Read full biographyClose biography

Hailing from Moga, Punjab, Harmanpreet Kaur Bhullar was introduced to cricket through her father’s passion for the game. From the early days of gully cricket, it was evident she had a special talent for sending bowlers on a leather hunt. Her breakthrough came when coach Kamaldish Singh Sodhi , impressed by her natural ball-striking, decided to build a girls’ cricket team around her—a decision that would shape Indian women's cricket for years to come. Initially a medium-pace all-rounder , Harmanpreet rose through the ranks quickly due to her consistent domestic performances. Her national call-up came in 2009 for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup , the news of which she first heard from her teammate Punam Raut during a casual phone conversation. However, breaking into the national team was just the beginning. Competing with bowling greats like Jhulan Goswami and Amita Sharma , Harmanpreet found limited opportunities as a frontline bowler. Determined to contribute, she shifted focus to her batting and gradually evolved into a reliable middle-order batter known for her composure in high-pressure situations. On her father's advice, she also added off-spin to her skillset, strengthening her position as a genuine all-rounder. Inspired by Virender Sehwag , Harmanpreet’s natural game leaned towards aggression. But it was Ajinkya Rahane’s calm, technical approach that helped her remodel her style during a rough patch, teaching her to strike a better balance between aggression and patience. For Harmanpreet, learning and evolving have been constant themes throughout her career. The 2016–17 season marked a turning point . After a disappointing World T20 campaign on home soil, she was handed the captaincy of the T20I side. Though her captaincy debut series—against a formidable West Indies team—ended in defeat, she bounced back strongly to lead India to their sixth consecutive Asia Cup title , going unbeaten in the tournament. Harmanpreet also became a pioneer in franchise cricket . She was the first Indian (male or female) to be signed by a foreign T20 league when three WBBL teams showed interest in her. She joined the Sydney Thunder , won the Player of the Tournament in her debut season, and helped them clinch the inaugural title. She later became the first Indian to sign with the Surrey Stars in the ECB’s Women’s Cricket Super League , expanding her international presence further. With a bold batting style, leadership acumen, and ability to evolve with the game, Harmanpreet Kaur stands as one of Indian cricket’s true pathbreakers —a symbol of resilience, versatility, and the growing global stature of women’s cricket.
