WPL 2027: ‘The protest works’ – Delhi Citals tells Nazma Khan’s story after the auction (Source: nazma005/IG) Delhi Citals shared a heartwarming moment on social media after signing Nazma Khan during the mini-auction of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2027. The franchise released a recall message that the cricketer had sent to Indian batsman Jemimah Rodrigues.
Nazma had said that it was her dream to one day share the field with her idol. That message, sent about a year ago, came to the fore again after Nazma’s signing brought her closer to the ambitions she and Jemimah had spoken about. The Indian batsman also took to Instagram to react to the exchange, welcoming the recruit to the Delhi Citals family.
Nazma’s message was about playing with Jemimah and being part of a winning team. She had also hoped that the Indian batsman would eventually understand the message so that she could share the moment her dream came true. A year later, Jemimah discovered the message when she opened Instagram to text Nazma.
She shared the screenshot on her story. “I opened Instagram to text Nazma earlier and came across a message from her a year ago. A year later, the demonstration is real. ✨Welcome to the family 💙❤️. Delhi Citals also celebrated this moment with a message about the importance of perseverance and faith.
“Reminder that the demonstration works. Never stop believing. Everything will work out in the end,” the franchise wrote.
Delhi Citals selects 4 players in WPL 2027 mini-auction Delhi Citals bought four players in WPL 2027 mini-auction and strengthened their squad. The franchise signed Kiran Navgire for ₹75 lakh and brought in Kashvi Kandikuppa, Nazma Khan and Scotland’s Kirstie Gordon for ₹10 lakh each. The addition of Gordon gives the team a further overseas twist and the new signings from India further strengthen the team for the upcoming season.
For Nazma, the signing means much more than just a place in the WPL. She had sent an old message to Jemimah about her willingness to challenge the India international on the field and now she gets a chance to be a part of the same franchise. The exchange gave fans an insight into the personal stories behind the auction day signings, with Nazma’s journey serving as a reminder of how hopes can eventually turn into opportunities in professional cricket.
