The Mithali Raj Stand and Ravi Kalpana Stand will be inaugurated on October 12, just before the India-Australia match in the ongoing ICC Women’s World Cup 2025.
Mithali, India’s top run-scorer and former captain, has been an inspiration for generations, while Kalpana made her mark as a talented wicketkeeper-batter.
The idea was fast-tracked after star batter Smriti Mandhana urged the Andhra Pradesh government to recognize these iconic players during an event in August 2025.
Andhra Government aims to inspire the next generation of Women cricketers
The Andhra Pradesh Cricket Association (ACA) said in a statement, “The ACA's tribute to Mithali Raj and Ravi Kalpana reflects a deep commitment to honoring the trailblazers who have redefined women's cricket in India while inspiring the next generation to dream bigger.”
