Kiran created history

She shared an unbroken 103-run partnership for the second wicket with Mukta Magre in this match, with Magre scoring just 6 runs. Maharashtra's total of 113 runs is now the lowest team score in women's T20 cricket in which a player has scored an individual century. The previous record was 123 runs when Anri Derksen scored an unbeaten 106 runs in a CSA T20 match.

Kiran Navgire, who hails from Mire in Solapur district, first came to prominence in the 2022 Women's T20 Trophy. Representing Nagaland, she smashed 35 sixes and became the first Indian woman to score more than 150 runs in a T20 match, scoring 162 runs off 76 balls. She played this innings against Arunachal Pradesh.

Has made her debut for Team India

Her explosive batting earned her a chance to make her T20I debut for India against England at Chester-le-Street the same year. However, she hasn't returned to the national team since the 2022 Women's Asia Cup. She has played six T20Is so far, scoring just 17 runs off 19 balls in four innings, remaining unbeaten once.

In the Women's Premier League, Navgire has been a key cog for the UP Warriors. In three seasons, she has scored 419 runs in 24 innings at a strike rate of 140.13, though her average has been below 18.
