Saika Ishaque has been the most promising young uncapped Indian player in the first six matches in WPL 2023. The left-arm spinner from Bengal has already taken 6 wickets in two matches for Mumbai Indians and repaid the faith shown by captain Harmanpreet Kaur. But, everything was not that good for her just 14 months ago. Shiv Sagar Singh, a former Bengal cricketer and coach of Saika Ishaque, shared how they both worked hard on her game's mental and analytical parts to prepare her for platforms like the Women's Premier League.

After a good season with Bengal, Saika Ishaque was drafted in the 2022 Women's T20 Challenge for the Trailblazers under Harmanpreet Kaur. However, things were not like that one year ago for the girl from Park Circus, Kolkata. Saika was actually thinking of leaving the game but decided to give it another try at the end of 2021. Shiv Sagar Singh was the rescuer for her.

Shiv Sagar is a former India U-19 and Ranji Trophy player who himself was a left-arm spinner. And, he knew how to shake her up mentally, before even giving her tips and tricks for a left-arm spin. "I first had to make sure I got her back mentally. And, when she was back mentally, the work became easier," Shiv Sagar Singh told Sportz Point in an exclusive interview.

"We both worked really hard last year on her bowling. I even took her to East Bengal nets to bowl against Ranji cricketers. And, she was not even letting Ranji cricketers hit her for boundaries, I knew she was ready for bigger stages," Shiv Sagar added.

Before making all the headlines after the inaugural WPL 2023 match against Gujarat Giants, Saika had already impressed captain Harmanreet Kaur in the practice matches she played. "She bowled well in those practice matches. She even bowled one of the super-overs as well. I think Harmanpreet was impressed with her performance in tough situations," Shiv Sagar expressed.

Saika's 5 wickets among the six in the Women's Premier League, have been bowled or LBWs. Actually, 4 bowleds, one LBW and one caught dismissal among 6 till now. This percentage of clean bowls might surprise others but not Shiv Sagar Singh.

"In women's cricket, it is tougher to hit if you do not give them room to free their arms. We practised bowling on those lines. It is a 'you miss, I hit' kind of plan."

Saika already has dismissed players like Sophie Devine, Annabel Sutherland and Georgia Wareham. This will surely make other franchise teams watch more of her and also plan different theories to face her. However, as per Shiv Sagar, if Saika can keep her composer and stick to the plans she makes with Harmanpreet, it will be tough for any batter to hit her.

"But, yes, she will obviously have to keep on improving and keep on learning from the great support staff Mumbai Indians have. Saika was really nervous before the first match. But, I knew once she bowled the first ball, she would be doing good. I feel, the more she plays, the better she will get."

When asked about Saika Ishqaue's future, Shiv Sagar feels she has a long way to go. But, she now only knows one way; and that is being positive.

"She has a long way to go. But, she is a fighter. I know if she can adapt to new challenges, she will be doing good for her and her team," Shiv Sagar Singh added. "My advice for her would be to take one ball at a time rather than thinking of the whole over at a time. Keeping things simple will help her decide well in pressure situations."

After returning with only one point against Tripura in Agaratala in their third match, Bengal will again, for the second time in this Ranji Trophy 2025-26 will have to look for a new captain. Not only that, they will have to add a new wicket-keeper batter after Abishek Porel’s India-A call-up for the Rising Star Asia Cup tournament in Qatar.

Mistakes cost Bengal six points

Okay, if not six, it definitely cost Bengal 3 points. Three dropped catches, and among them, three from the stand-in captain, Abishek Porel. Hanuma Vihari, who scored a three-point winning 141, was dropped twice by wicket-keeper Abishek Porel, one off Mohammed Kaif and one off his cousin brother Ishan Porel.

Later on, Anustup Majumdar could not hold on to a tough one of Vijay Shankar in the wide first slip as well. These mistakes allowed Tripura to make a comeback in the match. From 53/5, they scored 385 to earn their first point of the season.

If Bengal could hold onto those chances, they were surely in for six points, with Mohammed Kaif and Ishan Porel looking in rhythm, obviously alongside Mohammed Shami.

Sudip Gharami might become the captain for the Railways match

Since Abishek Porel will be in the India-A team for the Rising Star Asia Cup, Bengal will have to look for a new captain for the second time in the Ranji Trophy 2025-26 this season. Abhimanyu Easwaran, who was named the captain ahead of the season, is currently unavailable till the Assam match due to India-A duties, and till then, Sudip Gharami might be made the captain of the side.

Sudip last year led Bengal in the white-ball format, and Bengal played in the knockouts of the Vijay Hazare Trophy as well under his captaincy. Although there is Anustup Majumdar, who can be captain as well, it is unlikely that the 41-year-old batter would take the responsibility just for one match.

Now, to replace Abishek Porel, Bengal will not only need a captain, but they will have to add a wicket-keeper batter as well. Keepers like Agniv Pan, Suvankar Bal, who have first-class experience, can be options as well. Meantime, U-19 or U-23 keepers can be called up for the Railways too.

Shami might not travel to Surat

During the press conference after the match against Gujarat, Bengal head coach Laxmi Ratan Shukla had said to the media that it is not possible to expect Mohammed Shami will play all the matches of the season. Now, after playing three consecutive matches and going wicketless for the first time this season against Tripura, there will be a question about his workload.

So, the calculations might end up with Mohammed Shami not travelling to Surat for the match against Railways. It is unlikely that Bengal will add some other bowlers from outside the current squad. In that case, Suraj Sindhu Jaiswal can come into the playing XI, with Sumit Mohanta continuing as a backup pacer.

Bengal will leave for Surat on 5th November.

When is the Railways vs Bengal, Ranji Trophy 2025-26 match?

The Railways vs Bengal, Ranji Trophy 2025-26 match will be played from 8th November 2025 to 11 November 2025 at Lalbhai Contractor Stadium in Surat.

With another century in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 group stage match against New Zealand, Smriti Mandhana now has extended her lead in the list of Indian players with the most centuries in Women's ODIs.

Most centuries by Indian cricketers (WODI)

8. Jaya Sharma | 2 Centuries

Former Indian batter Jaya Sharma was only the second female Indian cricketer to have scored a century in ODI cricket. She smashed two centuries in WODI cricket in her career.

While her first century had come against Pakistan during Women's Asia Cup 2005 in Karachi, she scored another one in a winning effort against Australia in 2007 in Chennai making her the first Indian women to score an ODI century at home.

The left-handed batter could've achieved the milestone a few years before had she converted a couple of nervous 90s into hundreds.

7. Thirush Kamini | 2 Centuries

Former Indian and Tamil Nadu opener Thirush Kamini played for India at a time when women's cricket wasn't really picking up in the country. Regardless, she did well in her limited opportunities and notched a ton twice in her ODI career that spanned 39 matches and scored 825 runs at an average of 25.78.

Kamini's maiden ODI hundred came in India's win over the West Indies in the 2013 ODI World Cup. She stroked a 146-ball 100 to power India to a total of 284/6 in the first innings. India won that match comfortably and Thirush Kamini was rightfully awarded the POTM award.

6. Pratika Rawal | 2 Centuries

Indian opener Pratika Rawal has scored her first-ever Women's World Cup century, leading India to a commanding position in a crucial encounter against New Zealand in Navi Mumbai. The 25-year-old smashed 134-ball 122, hitting 3 fours and two sixes along the way. This is Rawal's second WODI century. Both her hundreds have come at home.

Playing her 23rd WODI match, Rawal also surpassed 1,000 runs. She is also the third quickest Indian to score a maiden century in Women’s ODIs. However, before the historic World Cup final, Rawal got injured and could not return for the rest of the tournament.

5. Punam Raut | 3 Centuries

The diminutive Indian batter Punam Raut was one of the pillars in Indian batting along with Harmanpreet, Smriti, Mithali and Veda Krishnmurthy. Punam has recorded three centuries in women's ODI cricket.

Punam smashed one WODI century at a home venue and two WODI centuries at neutral venues. Her highest score in this format is 109 not out against Ireland Women at Potchefstroom during the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2017.

4. Jemimah Rodrigues | 3 Centuries

Star batter Jemimah Rodrigues delivered a stunning performance in the 2025 ICC Women’s ODI World Cup semi-final, guiding India’s chase against Australia at DY Patil Sports Academy, Navi Mumbai.

With this century, Jemimah has now joined the elite list of most centuries by Indian cricketers in WODIs. This is also Rodrigues' highest score in Women's ODIs after her 123 against South Africa Women earlier this year.

3. Harmanpreet Kaur | 7 Centuries

Indian Women's Cricket team captain Harmanpreet Kaur is one of the finest batters in Indian women’s cricket history. The right-handed batter has scored seven WODI centuries in her career, equalling Mithali Raj’s record of seven ODI centuries.

Apart from four home WODI centuries, Harmanpreet also recorded two WODI hundreds at neutral venues and one more at an away venue. Her highest WODI score is 171 not out against Australia Women during the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2017 semi-final. Harmanpreet also became the first Indian captain to achieve Women's World Cup title in the ICC Women's ODI World Cup 2025.

2. Mithali Raj | 7 Centuries

Former Indian cricketer and captain Mithali Raj (7805 runs) is still the only player to score 6000 and 7000 WODI runs. The leading WODI run-scorer was the previous record holder for most centuries by Indian cricketers in WODIs.

She recorded seven WODI hundreds in her career.

While Mithali scored three WODI centuries at home, the right-handed batter recorded three WODI centuries at neutral venues and one at an away venue. Her highest WODI knock was 125 not out against Sri Lanka Women at Katunayake in 2018.

1. Smriti Mandhana | 14 Centuries

Indian opening batter Smriti Mandhana is one of the best batters in the modern generation. The left-hander holds the record for most centuries by Indian cricketers in WODIs.

She achieved the record solely in October 2025 after scoring a 88-ball century against New Zealand in the group stage match of the ICC Women's World Cup 2025 in Navi Mumbai. It was her 14th WODI hundreds. Her innings consisted of 10 boundaries and three sixes.

Hanuma Vihari’s unbeaten 128 took Tripura close to Bengal’s 336 in the first as the home side finished on 273/7 at the end of day 3.

Bengal were bundled for 336

Bengal could only add one more run to their overnight score as Tripura captain Manishankar Murasingh’s fifth ball of the first over kept a bit low and castled the stumps of Shahbaz Ahmed, who was dismissed on 40. Despite a 108 from Sudip Gharami and 95 from Shakir Habib Gandhi, Bengal had to be satisfied with 336 in the first inning. Murasingh finished with 3 wickets, as did Rana Dutta.

Five balls are all it took for Tripura to trigger the innings break. Shahbaz Ahmed has his stumps broken.

Excellent start from Bengal

Everyone knew with the form Tripura batters were in and the strength of the Bengal bowling lineup, 336 was a good total on the board. Although Mohammed Shami did not strike in the first hour, it was his brother Mohammed Kaif, who took three early wickets to send the Tripura top order back to the pavilion.

Kaif dismissed Bikram Kumar Das on 19, who tried to guide the ball towards third man and played down the ball onto the stumps. Ishan Porel then rattled the stumps of Hrituraj Ghosh Roy with an inswinger, and Bengal had the early momentum.

Kaif then had a double wicket over to break into the middle order of the Tripura batting lineup. Sridam Paul could not gauge the inswinger from Kaif and lost his stumps, while Bikramjit Debanth was trapped in front of the stumps by the medium pacer two balls later.

Shahbaz Ahmed then outfoxed Swapnil Singh to lure him out of the crease, and Abishek Porel did the rest to make it 53/5 before lunch.

Hanuma Vihar’s steady ton kept Tripura in the match

With a chance of follow-on lurking on their mind, Hanuman Vihari, the 12-Test experienced professional from Andhra Pradesh, took Tripura out of the misery. However, Vihari gave two chances before making the innings look solid and perfect.

First, it was debutant wicket-keeper batter Sentu Sarkar, who looked good and provided solid support to Vihari. Their partnership of 40 off 87 balls steadied the ship a bit, though they were not out of trouble by any means. Sentu was dismissed by Bengal’s debutant Rahul Prasad, which made the scoreboard look 93/6.

Fifty for Hanuma Vihari, his first of the season.

Apart from one chance off Mohammed Kaif, he has looked good.

Dropped catches gave Tripura an opening

A ball from Mohammed Kaif hit Abishek Porel’s left leg and he was forced to leave the field on Day 3 of Tripura vs Bengal, Ranji Trophy 2025-26 match.

First on 33, Abishek Porel could not hold on to a tough chance to his right as Kaif produced a ripper to find the edge of Hanuma Vihari. Then, on 53, it was Bengal’s stand-in captain Abishek Porel again, who missed a dolley off Ishan Porel to hand Vihari another life.

Meantime, Vijay Shankar kept on hitting occasional boundaries with the pain in his hamstring. Bengal then again had a chance to get Shankar out, but Anustup Majumdar dropped a tough chance at wide first slip to give him a chance.

Abishek Porel, who had gone out after getting injured, returned as a fielder and took a good catch to finally dismiss Vijay Shankar on 34. Kaif, with this fourth one of the inning, proved why he was a good inclusion to the playing XI.

Vihari then did not give any chance and reached his 25th first-class ton in a classy manner to keep the fight on for Tripura. Captain Manisankar Murasingh also added an unbeaten, valuable 42 off 75 to give him the support.

Bengal look to strike early with the new ball

In the final hour of the day, Bengal deliberately slowed the game down to wait for a new ball. They want to strike with the new ball early on the final day and grab those three points. But, between them and those three points will be a steady Hanuma Vihari and a calm Manisankar Murasingh.

Bengal needs three wickets while Tripura requires 63 runs in a battle for three points in Agartala. Check our LIVE blog to check real-time updates of Day 4.
