In WPL 2024, Lea took just one wicket in two matches she was in the playing eleven. Kathryn, meanwhile, played eight games in WPL 2024, averaging 20.75 with the bat and maintaining an economy rate of 8.66 with her seam-up bowling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cSneh Rana wasn\u2019t guaranteed a spot in our starting XI. Ash Gardner is there and we have Priya Mishra, up and coming spinner. It\u2019s a really harsh call. She\u2019s great around the group and is experienced. It was a hard decision.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\u201cBut we felt, going forward, we have some improvements to do and some tough calls to make and that\u2019s why we went that way,\u201d Gujarat Giants head coach Michael Klinger said to broadcasters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>GG\u2019s retained players include captain Beth Mooney, Ashleigh Gardner, Dayalan Hemalatha, Harleen Deol, Laura Wolvaardt, Shabnam Shakil, Tanuja Kanwer, Phoebe Litchfield, Meghna Singh, Kashvee Gautam, Priya Mishra, Mannat Kashyap, Bharti Fulmali and Sayali Satghare.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On the other hand, UP Warriorz (UPW) have released four players in England pacer Lauren Bell, uncapped wicketkeeper-batter Laxmi Yadav, and India U19 Women's T20 World Cup winning duo of pacer S Yashasri and leg-spinner Parshavi Chopra. The side had earlier traded England opener Danni Wyatt-Hodge to Royal Challengers Bengaluru.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>UPW\u2019s retained players included skipper Alyssa Healy, Grace Harris, Deepti Sharma, Rajeshwari Gayakwad, Chamari Athapaththu, Tahlia McGrath, Sophie Ecclestone, Anjali Sarvani, Kiran Navgire, Gouher Sultana, Poonam Khemnar, Saima Thakor, Shweta Sehrawat, Uma Chetry and Vrinda Dinesh.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>On the other hand, UP Warriorz (UPW) have released four players in England pacer Lauren Bell, uncapped wicketkeeper-batter Laxmi Yadav, and India U19 Women's T20 World Cup winning duo of pacer S Yashasri and leg-spinner Parshavi Chopra.
