During World Premier League (WPL) 2025, Kamalini was included in MI’s playing XI for their league match against Gujarat Giants at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara, making her at 16 years and 213 days old the youngest player ever to play in the tournament. She also got to bat after Nat Sciver-Brunt was dismissed and executed a well-timed cut for a boundary on the first ball she faced.

On Friday, Kamalini scored a 28-ball 32 while opening the lineup for the two-time champions and formed crucial partnerships with Kerr, Sciver, and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur.

Speaking of her performance after the game, head coach Keightley said, “She is extremely talented.

I saw her in her state matches where she dominated. I thought she did extremely well for her first hit out. It’s exciting to see what she’s going to do in this competition if that is the level she’s going to start at. I see her having a great tournament, going from strength to strength and building on what she did out there today. Very exciting time. Glad that she is on our team. She is a fantastic player for MI. I think she’ll do really well in this competition.”
