Indian batter Harleen Deol has been drafted by Barbados Tridents for the remainder of the ongoing Women's Caribbean Premier League (WCPL) season.

Her arrival increases the count of Indian players in the current edition of the WCPL to five, highlighting the expanding presence of Indian talent in overseas franchise competitions.

Known for her dynamic strokeplay and athleticism on the field, the 26-year-old brings valuable top-order composure and middle-order utility to the Tridents setup.

Deol has represented India across formats and gained global attention in recent years for her extraordinary boundary-line fielding skills and adaptability against varied bowling attacks.

The Barbados Tridents management expressed confidence that Deol's inclusion will strengthen their batting core as the tournament progresses toward its decisive phase.

With several of her national teammates already making key contributions across different franchises, Deol's addition adds further competitive edge to the Caribbean league.

Her ability to anchor an innings while accelerating against spin bowling is expected to play a crucial role for Barbados in close contests ahead.
