Mental characteristics
Personal history
Dhara Bhatt was born on January 8th, 1986, to Anish and Arya Bhatt, in the city of Aamdavaad within Hindustan province. She grew an interest in cricket at the age of 10, which, while later than many, allowed her to skyrocket her career to the international level only 10 years later, at the age of only 20. Additionally, she had always expressed an impressive level of intellect, leading to her enrollment in university at the age of 15, 2 years earlier than most. During her time at Jalaluddin Rumi University, she joined a political underground of Nishari liberals, which influenced her decision to major in Political Science. At the age of 19, she graduated from University and was immediately given the chance to represent her country at the national level. She made her official debut for Nisha at the age of 20, during the country's first T20i tour. While she was a bit of a fringe player for a while, a number of successes from 2008-2010 allowed her to become a mainstay of the squad. After that, she became the country's main spinner for a number of years. In 2006, she married Anshuman Joshi, and, while they intended to have kids in 2008, the success of her career left the couple to wait a few more years for her career to really take off. In 2011, the couple's first child, Laksh Joshi was born. 3 years later, their second child, Khushboo Joshi, was born. After the legendary Maya Paracha's retirement from the T20I Captaincy in 2016, Bhatt led the T20I side for a year, before she herself handed the team off the Hira Kaur. In 2020, she retired from International Cricket, stating that she was taking the step and venturing into Politics.

Accomplishments & Achievements
Dhara never scored a century during her time in the national team, mostly due to her almost always batting at numbers 10 and 11. However, her highest score is 76*(120), which came in a test match against Bangladesh in 2009. Batting at number 10, Dhara first batted with her captain Arisha Sume, before she was out. Afterward, she batted with number 11 batter Tulsi Khaseeri.
In her 14 years of cricket, Bhatt has taken 27 5-wicket hauls, 19 in Tests, 6 in ODIs, and 2 in T20Is. She is widely regarded as Nisha's greatest Women's Spinner.
