Watch: Smriti Mandhana Celebrates With India Teammates After Going For Rs 3.4 Crore To Royal Challengers Bangalore In WPL Auction
Indian women's cricket team opener Smriti Mandhana became the costliest cricketer in the Women's Premier League (WPL) auction as she was acquired by Royal Challengers Bangalore for Rs 3.4 crore on Monday. The star India opener was the first player to go under the hammer and she quickly sparked a bidding war between RCB and Mumbai Indians. The bidding went on for quite some time before the Bangalore franchise was able to make a marquee signing. In a video published by Jio Sports on Twitter, Mandhana was seen watching the auction with her India teammates and celebrations erupted once the bidding was over and she was congratulated by all the other players.
