Women's IPL Auction 2023 Live

Hello and welcome to ABP's Live coverage of the Women’s Premier League auction. It is a historic moment for women's cricket where 409 players will be going under the hammer.

Background

The much-awaited Women's Premier League (WPL) 2023 Auction is here and will be taking place on Monday, February 13, in Mumbai. A total of 409 players will go under the hammer with 246 Indians and 163 overseas players will be making the cut.


The five teams -- Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals, RCB, Gujarat Giants and UP Warriorz -- will be bidding. With a salary purse of Rs 12 crore per team for the first year and a squad size of 18 including six overseas players, at least 20 to 25 of the 60 Indian women set to be picked will command good auction price. The base prices are set in five brackets with the least being Rs 10 lakh and the highest Rs 50 lakh. The other brackets are Rs 20, 30 and 40 lakh, respectively.


It is expected that members of this current Indian team and those from Australia, England, New Zealand and South Africa will be the most sought after players at the auction. If some officials associated with the franchises are to be believed, Smriti, Shafali, Harmanpreet and all-rounder Deepti Sharma are set to earn anywhere between Rs 1.25 to 2 crore from teams that successfully bid for them.


Big hitter Richa Ghosh and seamer Renuka Thakur will also invoke a lot of interest from potential bidders. So will the spinners like Rajeshwari Gayakwad and Radha Yadav, and seamers Meghana Singh and Shikha Pandey. Jemimah Rodrigues, who has had a good run in foreign T20 leagues, could also be a big earner during the auction.
