For the rising Northeast superstar, the PBL is going to prove crucial for the long run of the season. Riding on the success of her double gold win at the South Asian Games, Chaliha has her eyes set onto the future and aspires to break into the Top 50 hopefully. Bagged by her home team, the North Eastern Warriors, Ashmita was bid for INR 3 Lakhs. At 20 years of age, Ashmita's highlight moment of her career came with the gold medal victory at the South Asian Games.

Pestered by an injury, the majority of Chaliha's 2019 had gone in nursing it but the sprightly girl from Northeast managed to bounce back in time. Powered on by her skills and talent at the sport, Chaliha made the gold victory seem so natural to her.

Chaliha began to show signs of promise when she stirred us up to take notice of her wins at the Dubai International Challenge and the Tata Open International Challenge.

Set to debut at the PBL, the young shuttler is keen to explore her talent further and rub shoulders with the best in the game. With Michelle Li, Lee Yong Dae and Tanongsak Saensomboonsuk on her team, she will have a lot to learn and can use those skills to cause trouble in her matches for her opponents.
