Deepti Sharma was born to Sushilaa and Bhagwan Sharma. She is the youngest among her siblings. Her father is a retired chief booking supervisor with the [[Indian Railways]]. She developed an interest in the game of cricket at an early age of 9. Sharma would on a daily basis ask her father to request her brother Sumit Sharma (who initially coached her), a former [[Uttar Pradesh cricket team|Uttar Pradesh]] pacer, to take her to the ground and watch the net practices and other matches. During one of the net practices which involved her brother and his teammates at the [[Eklavya Sports Stadium|Ekalavya Sports Stadium]] in Agra, she was asked to throw the ball back into play. The ball hit the stumps on a direct throw from a distance of 50 metres.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/agra/womens-world-cup-will-be-the-biggest-raksha-bandhan-gift-says-deepti-sharmas-brother/articleshow/59705138.cms|title=Women's World Cup will be the biggest 'Raksha Bandhan' gift, says Deepti Sharma's brother - Times of India|website=The Times of India|date=21 July 2017 |access-date=2018-12-15}}</ref> This was spotted by then India's national women's team selector, [[Hemlata Kala]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/player/53917.html|title=Hemlata Kala|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=2018-12-15}}</ref> and it was the turning point of her life.

By the time she reached the age of 15, she had enough experience but was always overlooked by the selectors for state teams selection. Her all-round abilities slowly caught the eye of few other selectors and [[Rita Dey]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/player/54245.html|title=Rita Dey|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=2018-12-15}}</ref> a former Indian batter and selector, decided to mentor her.

Sharma started off as a medium pacer but had to shift to slow off-spin bowling. The switch wasn't easy for her as it was not coming naturally. Only after guidance and counselling from her local coaches and selectors, she mastered the art of spin bowling owing to her height.

She kept delivering spectacular performance at the state level as well as in A side matches. But it was her performance against [[South Africa women's national cricket team|South Africa]] in her debut international match in [[M. Chinnaswamy Stadium|Bengaluru]], that she cemented her place in the national side.
