Harmanpreet Kaur, the captain of India, is a seasoned hitter who has 145 T20I appearances. She has scored 2919 runs, including a century. Kaur is a capable spinner with 32 wickets under her belt and a 6.27 economy rate.
Harmanpreet Kaur and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana have the highest base pricing for the player auction. By joining the WBBL in 2016, Harmanpreet became the first Indian to compete in an overseas T20 league.
He continued by saying that having the opportunity to share a dressing room with famous people from other countries boosts one’s confidence before playing internationally.
At least 20 to 25 of the 60 Indian women who will be chosen would attract a respectable auction price with a wage budget of Rs 12 crore per side for the first year and a squad size of 18 players including six foreign players.
The base price is divided into five ranges, with Rs. 10 lahks as the lowest and Rs. 50 lakh as the highest. The other ranges are, correspondingly, 20, 30, and 40 lakhs.
Some of the biggest names in women’s cricket are expected to be up for grabs in the WPL 2023 Auction, which promises to be a thrilling occasion.
Harmanpreet Kaur, an all-rounder for India over the past several years, is one of the most sought-after names in the game. The following three groups can make an offer for Kaur:
UP Warriorz
The UP Warriorz are one of the new WPL teams which is owned by Capri Global Holdings Pvt. Ltd and they will be looking to add some more firepower to their strong lineup.
Kaur’s experience and skill set make her a perfect fit for this team and they will be willing to break the bank to get her services. With Kaur in their lineup, they could become an even stronger team in the inaugural season. Kaur’s all-around ability will be a great asset to the UP Warriorz.
Delhi Capitals
The DC might be the surprise package of the WPL, as in the last few seasons in men’s IPL, they have made it. Kaur’s presence in their team will make them even more formidable and they will do everything in their power to take her at the auction.
The franchise is owned by the GMR group and they will shell out big bucks for the Indian superstar.
Gujarat Giants
The Gujarat Giants was the IPL champion of the previous season. They will surely try to repeat the history in WPL 2023. The presence of Kaur in the team will make them one of the top contenders to win the WPL trophy.
The franchise is owned by the Adani Group and they are likely to bid for Kaur for her captain position.
