WPL 2025: Nicole Bolton to join Mumbai Indians as fielding coach
Mumbai Indians roped in former Australian opener Nicole Bolton as fielding coach, the Women’s Premier League (WPL) franchise announced on Friday.
Bolton joined the coaching set-up under head coach Charlotte Edwards. She had served as the assistant coach for South Australia and Adelaide Strikers in the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL).
In a career spanning from 2014 to 2019, Nicole was a mainstay in the Australian batting lineup and has played 50 ODIs, three Tests, and two T20Is.
She also held the record for being the first Australian woman to score a century on an ODI debut and the first woman of any nationality to score such a century against a full ICC member team.
Bolton will replace former English cricketer Lydia Greenway in this role.
MI’s campaign in the third season of the WPL will begin on February 15 against the Delhi Capitals in Vadodara.
