WPL 2026: RCB’s Prathyoosha Kumar Ready To Embrace Playing For Intent Over Survival
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) wicketkeeper-batter Prathyoosha Kumar said her aim from WPL 2026 is to embrace a mindset of playing for intent over survival. Prathyoosha was signed for Rs 10 lakh by RCB for the 2026 season, and has been methodically preparing for the step up from years of playing domestic cricket for Karnataka.
Prathyoosha, though, has not got a game yet due to the presence of first-choice wicketkeeper-batter Richa Ghosh. But her experiences of going through WPL trials and net keeper stints with RCB for the first three seasons have added to her understanding of the significant shift in tactical thinking required at a higher level.
Deliveries considered risky in domestic cricket prove to be effective wicket-taking options in the WPL, where the game demands a more attacking mindset overall. "In the past, since the WPL started, I've been attending a lot of trials. So, I've been trying to understand how it works out in the WPL.
