    Royal Challengers Bengaluru: 2024 winners Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) added England fast bowler Lauren Bell and left-arm spinner Linsey Smith to their roster at the 2026 Women’s Premier League (WPL) mega auction on Thursday.

    Delhi Capitals secured former South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Lizelle Lee, while UP Warriorz exercised their final Right to Match (RTM) card to bring back India pacer Kranti Gaud and brought in leg-spinner Asha Sobhana. Mumbai Indians continued their strategy of getting back old players by including Shabnim Ismail, while Gujarat Giants got in India fast bowler Titas Sadhu.

    In the keepers category, there were no takers for Isabella Gaze, Amy Jones and Uma Chetry, who was a member of India’s ODI World Cup-winning campaign. Lizelle Lee, the former South Africa opener and wicketkeeper now based in Australia, was claimed by DC for INR 30 lakh.
