Her release from Mumbai Indians makes her a cost-effective choice, and although her current average is modest (around 18), she has the potential to grow into a more reliable run-scorer.

Her ability to both strike and maintain economy would strengthen RCB's bowling depth, especially if they are looking for consistent seam options. On the batting front, Kiran Navgire offers explosive potential. With three WPL half-centuries and a strike rate near 140, she is a dangerous top-order bat. While her inconsistency could deter some teams, RCB might…...
