Bharti Fulmali Profile, Career & Stats

Bharti Fulmali is a right-handed batter and a part-time right-arm medium-pacer from Amravati, Maharashtra. She was born on October 11, 1994. She represents Gujarat Giants in the Women’s Premier League (WPL) and the Vidharbha Women’s team domestically.

Growing up in the streets of Amravati, Fulmali won glory in local and school tournaments. At 13, she launched her professional career, culminating in her senior debut at just 17. Her early exposure to cricket laid a strong foundation for her future endeavours.

Bharti Fulmali Domestic Career

Bharti Fulmali has played most of her domestic cricket with the Vidharbha Women’s cricket team, elevating the team’s performance across age groups. In the 2018–19 Senior Women’s Challenger Trophy, Fulmali was chosen for the India Blue team, marking a significant advancement in her career.

She was nothing short of extraordinary during the season, scoring 114 runs in three games at a strike rate of 70.81 and an incredible average of 57.00. In the end, she became the season's second-highest run scorer. Her ability to anchor the innings and play in line with the team's expectations was highlighted by her best score of 69.

As they say, luck favours warriors. In March 2024, Fulmali was called up to the Gujarat Giants squad to replace Harleen Deol. She solidified her middle-order position thanks to this opportunity. 

She is renowned for playing calmly, anchoring the innings, and adapting to the situation. Although she excels at batting, she is also a good right-arm medium-pacer bowler. All things considered, her fielding enhances the team's value, and her reliable play makes her a versatile player. Moreover, she would look to showcase her prowess while playing as a mainstay for Gujarat in WPL 2025.

Bharti Fulmali International Career

Bharti Fulmali was included in the India Women's T20I squad for a T20 series against England Women in February 2019, marking her first call-up to the national team's squad. Along with Komal Zanzad, she was one of the first Vidarbha players to be selected for the national team, making it historic for her.

On March 7, 2019, Fulmali made her series debut at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. Despite scoring 23 runs in two games, with her top score being 18, she was unable to have the finest debut. These figures may seem low by her standards, but she earned enough exposure and experience to bounce back stronger.  

Thanks to her WPL 2026 exploits, her career has come full circle after seven years, with her being picked in India's T20I squad for the Australia tour and the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026.
