ICC Women’s Team Of The Year 2022: The International Cricket Council (ICC) has announced its Women’s ODI and T20I Team of the Year 2022, featuring the top players who made an impact during the year. Four Indian women cricketers are among the eleven players on the ICC T20I women’s team, and three Indian women cricketers are among the eleven on the ICC ODI women’s team. Both Smriti Mandhana and Renuka Singh are featured in ODI and T20I teams.
The ICC ODI team is headed by Indian star Harmanpreet Kaur, along with the above-mentioned star batter Smriti Mandhana and bowler Renuka Singh. However, the lineup is noticeably missing two key players, namely top all-rounder Deepti Sharma and Rajeshwari Gayakwad, who was India’s best ODI wicket-taker in 2022.
Deepti Sharma misses out on the ODI team but she made up her spot in the T20I team. Along with Smriti Madahana and Renuka Singh, Deepti Sharma and Richa Ghosh are included in the ICC Women’s T20 team of the year where Richa Ghosh is appointed as the wicketkeeper.

India’s Smriti Mandhana is number 1 on the lineup who finished 2022 as the player with the most runs (594 total) in Women’s T20 Internationals. The bowling lineup is led by her compatriot Deepti Sharma and Renuka Singh, with the former having taken the most wickets in Women’s T20Is.
Richa Ghosh, Ash Gardner, and Tahlia McGrath are the firepower in the middle order, and Sophie Ecclestone and Inoka Ranaweera sharing the ball with Renuka Singh looks like a lethal bowling unit.
