*Ekta Bisht*

Ekta Bisht is an Indian cricket player. She is left given batswoman and moderate left-arm standard bowler. She is the principal International lady cricketer from Uttarakhand province of India.

Ekta Bisht was conceived on 8 February 1986 in Almora, Uttar Pradesh (now in Uttarakhand) to Kundan Singh Bisht and Tara Bisht. Her dad, Kundan Singh Bisht, resigned from the Indian Army in 1988 at the rank of Havaldar. Ekta Bisht has two kin. Bisht started playing cricket at six years old. She would play the game with young men, which frequently drew a group of people as she was the main young lady in a male group. Accepting just an annuity of ?1,500 (equal to ?15,000 or US$220 in 2017), Kundan Singh Bisht opened a tea slow down in Almora to supplement the family's salary and bolster his little girl's cricketing vocation. The family's accounts enhanced after Ekta was chosen for the national group in 2011, and started getting financing from supports. Following an expansion in her dad's Army annuity, the family could close the tea slow down.

Bisht moved toward becoming skipper of the Uttarakhand cricket group in 2006. She played for the Uttar Pradesh cricket group from 2007 to 2010.

Bisht was chosen for the India ladies' national cricket group in 2011 and made her WODI make a big appearance on 2 July 2011 against Australia.

On 3 October 2012, Bisht took a cap trap as India defeated amid match of the ICC World Women Twenty20 played in Colombo, Sri Lanka. India has confined Sri Lanka to a humble 100 for eight after Bisht asserted a cap trap in the last finished. Bisht was a piece of the Indian group to achieve the last of the 2017 Women's Cricket World Cup where the group lost to England by nine runs.

In December 2017, she was named as one of the players in both the ICC Women's ODI Team of the Year and the ICC Women's T20I Team of the Year. She was the main lady named in the two squads.
