Cricketer Lauren Cheatle of Gujarat Giants left the playing field to fight cancer, will not play WPL 2024

Australian fast bowler Lauren Cheatle will not be able to play in the domestic season of the Women's Premier League (WPL 2024) due to cancer. It is being told that Lauren Cheatle had cancer in the neck skin, and now due to its removal process, she has taken a break from cricket for some time. Left arm fast bowler Lauren had to undergo a medical procedure on Wednesday itself. Let us tell you that earlier in 2021, a similar operation on his leg had also taken place.

Australian fast bowler Lauren Cheatle was added by the Gujarat Giants franchise during the Women's Premier League 2024 auction held in December, but now she will not be able to play in the WPL, which is going to start this month. Along with this, she will also not be able to play the remaining matches of the Women's National Cricket League (WNCL) season with New South Wales.

Cricket NSW, as quoted by ESPN Cricinfo, issued a statement giving a health update on Lauren Cheatle, saying that Cheatle now aims to return to training with NSW after the players' scheduled off-season break.

Lauren Cheatle had performed brilliantly for Australia A on the tour of England last year. Not only this, she had performed strongly for Sydney Sixers in the Women's Big Bash League. Seeing this form, he got a chance to debut in Test cricket for the Australia team in the only test match against India held recently in Mumbai.
