WPL 2024: Full Squads Of All Franchises, New Players Bought At Women's Premier League Auction

Australian all-rounder Annabel Sutherland and uncapped Indian pacer Kashvee Gautam attracted the biggest bids of Rs 2 crores each from Delhi Capitals (DC) and Gujarat Giants (GG) respectively while another uncapped India batter Vrinda Dinesh from Karnataka was bought by UP Warriorz for Rs 1.3 crores at the Women's Premier League (WPL) auction 2024 on Saturday. All 30 slots, including nine overseas players across all the teams, were filled in the auction.

Here is what the final squads look like for all the teams:

Delhi Capitals

Squad strength: 18 (6 overseas)

Players bought: Annabel Sutherland (Rs 2 crore), Aparna Mondal (Rs 10 lakh), Ashwani Kumari (Rs 10 lakh)

Auction performance: Delhi Capitals had a strong squad in the last season as well. The only shortcoming was a back-up to wicketkeeper Taniya Bhatia. They had released Aparna Mondal, who they brought back at base price. But they did not opt for Uma Chetry, a player from Assam known for scoring quick runs. Sutherland could be a reliable option when Marizanne Kapp is rested.

Full squad: Alice Capsey*, Arundhati Reddy, Jemimah Rodrigues, Jess Jonassen*, Laura Harris*, Marizanne Kapp*, Meg Lanning*, Minnu Mani, Poonam Yadav, Radha Yadav, Shafali Verma, Shikha Pandey, Sneha Deepthi, Taniya Bhatia, Titas Sadhu, Annabel Sutherland*, Aparna Mondal, Ashwani Kumari
