Pratika Rawal Joins Warwickshire for Metro Bank One-Day Cup Run-In

Returning from a July injury, she will be available from August 19 to strengthen Warwickshire's bid for a One-Day Cup playoff place.

Overview

  • Warwickshire announced Tuesday that India opener Pratika Rawal has signed for the remainder of their Metro Bank One-Day Cup campaign.
  • Rawal is due to be available for the next round of group fixtures starting on August 19 at Edgbaston, with a match against Yorkshire pencilled in for her debut with the Bears.
  • The county stint is being used to ease her back from injury after she missed the Lord’s Test following a setback while playing for India A in Taunton earlier in July.
  • Rawal arrives with strong recent ODI form, including 308 runs in the 2025 World Cup and records as the fastest to 500 ODI runs and joint-fastest to 1,000, which underpins her value at the top of the order.
  • Warwickshire sit fifth, two points behind third place, so her addition could directly affect their late-season standings and their chances of reaching the eliminator if she regains form quickly.
