Top 10 Wealthiest Indian Women Cricketers 2025 Earnings Revealed

The world of women’s cricket in India has taken a giant leap forward, not just on the field but in the earning stakes too. The recent article highlights the top 10 richest Indian women cricketers in 2025, shining a light on how sport, business and fame now overlap in exciting ways. 

At the top of the list stands the veteran Mithali Raj, whose long and illustrious career has translated into an estimated net worth of around rs 40-45 crore. Even in retirement, her brand value, mentorship roles, and endorsements keep her in the spotlight. 

Just behind her is star batter Smriti Mandhana (32-34 crore) and captain Harmanpreet Kaur (24-26 crore). Their incomes come from a mix of BCCI central contracts, league deals (such as the Women’s Premier League), and lucrative brand endorsements. 

Next come a group of rising stars: Jhulan Goswami (8 crore), Shafali Verma (8-11 crore), Deepti Sharma (8 crore), Jemimah Rodrigues (5 crore), Pooja Vastrakar (3-5 crore), Yastika Bhatia (1 crore) and Renuka Singh Thakur (0.8-1 crore) rounding out the ten. 

What’s important is what this growth means. For decades, women’s cricket in India played second fiddle in funding, visibility and pay. Today, thanks to stronger institutional support, franchise leagues and a growing fan base, these athletes are getting both recognition and reward.

But it’s not just about money. The list also signals progress: societal acceptance, media interest, investment in women’s sport and the breaking of long-standing barriers. For aspiring young girls in India, seeing these numbers and names sends a message: cricket is not just for the boys.

In essence, while runs and wickets remain the core of sport, the story today extends into boardrooms, brands and balance sheets. Indian women cricketers are now rewriting their financial narratives and the field will never look the same again.
