<p>Young spinner <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/injured-shreyanka-ruled-out-tanuja-steps-in-23366456" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Shreyanka Patil</a> has been nominated for the ICC Women's Emerging Cricketer of the Year award, after an outstanding year in international cricket.</p>
<p>In the list of nominees, Patil is joined by South Africa's Annerie Dercksen, Scotland's Saskia Horley, and Ireland's Freya Sargent.</p>
<p>The 22-year old off-spinner hailing from Karnataka made history as the first Indian to play in the Women's Caribbean Premier League in December 2023 and has since excelled in all formats.</p>
<p>Patil has taken 15 wickets in 13 T20 Internationals since making her debut in December 2023. In addition, she has taken four wickets in two ODIs she has played.</p>
<p>Patil has been a consistent presence in India's line-up this year, playing in bilateral series against Australia, Bangladesh and South Africa, in addition to participating in major tournaments like the Women's T20 Asia Cup and the T20 World Cup.</p>
<p>One of her standout performances came in the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/womens-t20-world-cup-2024-women-cricket-in-asia-struggles-to-match-western-standards-23411776" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">World Cup T20</a>, where she finished with figures of 2/14, including the key dismissals of Muneeba Ali and Tuba Hassan. Hassan was removed in a wicket-maiden.</p>
<p>Patil's effort helped restrict Pakistan to 105/8 in a must-win group-stage game, allowing India to chase down the target in 19 overs and keep their World Cup hopes alive after an opening loss to New Zealand.</p>
<p>While primarily known for her <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/indian-bowling-is-looking-a-little-weak-cheteshwar-pujara-lashes-out-on-team-india-23452639" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">bowling</a>, Patil is also a capable lower-order batter.</p>
<p>Though her batting skills have not yet been fully showcased, it remains an important part of her game, and she is ready to shine when the opportunity arises.&nbsp;</p>
