What a day it was for women's cricket in India! A youngster fetched the biggest amount at the WPL 2024 auction and it is a very good sign for Indian cricket going ahead into the future. Teams like Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals were not very active and were pretty clear with their moves and signings. Gujarat Giants and Delhi Capitals signed the joint-most expensive players at the WPL 2024 auction (Kashvee Gautam and Annabel Sutherland respectively) for Rs 2 crore each. Young batter Vrinda Dinesh also had a memorable day when she was picked by UP Warriorz for Rs 1 crore. Giants made some smart signings in Phoebe Litchfield, Lauren Cheatle and also Veda Krishnamurthy towards the end. UP Warriorz squad also looks pretty balanced and so does RCB, who have signed veteran Indian players like S Meghana and also Ekta Bisht besides adding some international experience in form of Georgia Wareham and Kate Cross. All the teams look pretty stacked ahead of WPL 2024 and it would be interesting to see how each of these sides fare in the next edition of the competition in 2024. On the contrary, it was surprising to see Sri Lanka Chamari Athpaththu, Deandra Dottin, Amanda-Jade Wellington, Kim Garth and Amy Jones were among those who went unsold, surprisingly.

Smriti Mandhana was the most expensive player in the WPL 2023 auction when she was signed up by Royal Challengers Bangalore for a sum of Rs 3.4 crore.

The first edition of the Women's Premier League, which was held earlier this year, was a major success and the same is expected this time around as well. Which team will sign whom?
