We\u2019ve done our discussions leading up to the auction, and our scouting team has had a thorough look at a lot of local talent during the off-season. We\u2019re confident of filling in the minor gaps and making our squad most complete,\u201d said head coach Jonathan Batty.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Ahead of the auction, Delhi Capitals had released Poonam Yadav, Laura Harris, Aparna Mondal and Ashwani Kumari.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>\"We look at stats, a whole lot of data, and also integrate it all with the wealth of experience that's there already. Sourav Ganguly's experience in the game is second to none in world cricket. We pick his brain on how we can improve, what we can look to do in the auction as well,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The WPL 2025 Auction is scheduled to be held on Sunday in Bengaluru, with 120 players set to go under the hammer for selection by the five franchises.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The auction pool includes 91 Indian players and 29 international stars, featuring three emerging talents from Associate Nations. Of these, 30 players are capped (9 Indian, 21 overseas), while 90 are uncapped (82 Indian, 8 overseas). With most franchises retaining their core squads, only 19 slots remain open, including 5 for overseas players.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The WPL 2025 Auction is scheduled to be held on Sunday in Bengaluru, with 120 players set to go under the hammer for selection by the five franchises.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/tagging\/highest-tax-paying-cricketers\">Highest tax paying cricketers<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
