Richa was instrumental in the 2025 Women’s World Cup victory. She scored 235 runs in eight games at an average of 39.16 and a strike rate of 133.52. She played cameos of 26 off 16 balls in the semifinal against Australia and 34 off 24 in the final against South Africa. The Women in Blue secured their first ICC trophy.
“Richa became a world champion at just 22. On behalf of the West Bengal government, we honoured her, but I want to do more. There’s about 27 acres of land in Darjeeling, and I’ve asked the mayor to plan a cricket stadium there. It should be named the Richa Cricket Stadium so that people remember her performance in the future and are inspired by it,” Mamata Banerjee said.
