Shreyanka Patil is one of the three Indian Women players to have been picked in the fourth edition of the Women's Caribbean Premier League draft.

After missing out on almost a year of cricket due to her finger injury in the Women's Asia Cup in July 2025, Shreyanka also faced a tough snub from the Indian squad for the upcoming World Cup at home.

As she returns to action with her CPL stint with the Barbados Royals, the all-rounder will look to put on some spirited performances to stage a comeback to the Indian side.

Shreyanka Patil picks her dream T20 line-up as Rohit & Dhoni miss out

During her interview with the WCPL social media team, the 23-year-old was asked to pick her ideal dream T20 team, which included both men and women.

Shreyanka went on to pick five women, including herself. While she made sure the famous RCB trio of Virat Kohli, Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers were included, the Indian T20 World Cup-winning captains from 2007 and 2024, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma, did not make the XI.

Virat, Gayle, ABD, Harmanpreet Kaur, Grace Harris, Chinelle Henry, Shreyanka, Sophie Molineux, Andre Russell, Jasprit Bumrah, Rashid Khan.

She further clarified that someone like Andre Russell would bat above her, considering his monstrous stroke-making ability in the lower-middle order.
