Kerala cricketers S Sajana and Asha Sobhana were given a warm welcome on returning home from their maiden international tour on Friday.

The Malayali duo was part of the Indian women's team that crushed Bangladesh 5-0 in a T20I series. Sajana and Asha were received at the Thiruvananthapuram Airport by representatives of the Kerala Cricket Association and a group of young players.

Wayanad all-rounder Sajana played in all five matches but did not find much opportunity with the bat, playing lower down the order. She scored a run-a-ball 11 in the first match.

Thiruvananthapuram-native Asha had a more impressive outing. The leg spinner played the last two games and bagged four wickets in total.
