Career context

Jemimah Ivan Rodrigues is an Indian right-handed middle-order batter from Mumbai who also bowls occasional right-arm offbreak. Her path runs from Mumbai age-group cricket and a 202 not-out Under-19 milestone to India, the WPL and a decisive 127 not out against Australia in the 2025 World Cup semi-final.

How to read the player

Rodrigues’ tactical value is format-shaped: she can absorb pressure, find gaps and change tempo late, while her athletic fielding adds value beyond the scorecard. The 2025 semi-final shows the distinction between a career aggregate and a high-leverage innings; her record is best read across formats rather than as one blended total.

01 · personal background

Personal background and education

Jemimah Ivan Rodrigues was born on 5 September 2000 in Mumbai, Maharashtra. BCCI and ESPNcricinfo describe a multi-sport foundation: she played football and basketball and represented hockey at national level before committing to cricket. ESPNcricinfo lists St Joseph’s Convent high school, Bandra, and Rizvi College, Bandra.

Question: What is Jemimah Rodrigues’s education? Answer: ESPNcricinfo lists St Joseph’s Convent high school in Bandra and Rizvi College in Bandra. The biography keeps this as a public education record and does not add private background.

02 · professional journey

From Mumbai age-group cricket to India and the WPL

Rodrigues made her Mumbai Under-19 debut at 13 in the 2012-13 season, then scored 202 not out against Saurashtra in the 2017 Under-19 One-Day Trophy. The domestic run led to an India call-up and senior debuts in 2018; BCCI lists her Test debut in 2023. Her public team record spans India, Delhi Capitals Women and overseas franchise sides.

Question: Does Jemimah Rodrigues play for Delhi Capitals? Answer: Delhi Capitals’ public WPL profile lists her as a batter, records a 2023 WPL debut and shows 37 overall WPL matches and 771 runs. That public profile is not treated here as proof of a newly dated contract.

03 · playing career

International career, WPL record and signature innings

Rodrigues is most effective when the innings asks her to change tempo. The career table accessed on 8 November 2026 lists 339 Test runs, 1,810 ODI runs and 2,824 T20I runs. Delhi Capitals’ overall WPL table lists 771 runs and a highest score of 69 not out. Her defining international performance came in the 2025 World Cup semi-final, when 127 not out against Australia anchored a record 339 chase.

Question: What are Jemimah Rodrigues’s stats? Answer: The ESPNcricinfo snapshot lists 339 Test runs, 1,810 ODI runs and 2,824 T20I runs; its WODI and WT20I tables also list five and one wickets respectively. Delhi Capitals lists 771 WPL runs. These are separate dated format snapshots.

Question: What is Jemimah Rodrigues’s highest score? Answer: Her highest listed international score is 127 not out in the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup semi-final against Australia. The innings came from 134 balls and was part of India’s record 339 chase.

04 · playing style

A 360-degree middle-order batter

BCCI describes Rodrigues as a right-handed, versatile batter able to score around the field, while ESPNcricinfo records her as a middle-order batter and occasional offbreak bowler. Her value is therefore format-specific: she can build an innings, accelerate late and contribute athletic fielding without being labelled a bowling all-rounder. This is editorial interpretation of the role and source descriptions, not a claim about unreported tracking data.

05 · setbacks comebacks

Setbacks, selection pressure and return

The public career record includes a 2021 T20I omission after low scores in England, a place outside India’s 2022 ODI World Cup squad and a mid-tournament omission in the 2025 World Cup. ESPNcricinfo records her response at the next World Cup: she returned against Australia and made 127 not out, while ICC and BCCI describe the partnership and record chase that took India to the final. The account avoids private medical or psychological claims.

06 · post playing work

Current public status, not a post-playing career

The reviewed record identifies Rodrigues as an India international: the ICC profile lists a 2018 debut and a last match in 2026, while ESPNcricinfo lists 2026 international appearances. The supplied sources do not establish a dated retirement or a separate post-playing profession, so this section reports the dated record rather than asserting an undated future status.

Question: How old is Jemimah Rodrigues? Answer: She was born on 5 September 2000. On the 8 November 2026 research date, that makes her 26; age is date-dependent rather than a permanent player statistic.

07 · public ventures

Public ventures and evidence boundary

The reviewed BCCI, ICC, ESPNcricinfo and Delhi Capitals pages document cricket roles, teams, public performances and official social links, but they do not establish a public company, ownership stake, foundation leadership or other venture that can be safely added. No salary or net-worth estimate is included. This is an evidence boundary, not a claim that no commercial relationship exists.
