WPL 2026: Former India Captain Anjum Chopra Feels UP Warriorz Look Like The Strongest Team

By IANS News January 08, 2026 • 18:08 PM View: 186

Like UP Warriorz: Former India captain Anjum Chopra believes UP Warriorz (UPW) look like the strongest team ahead of the 2026 Women's Premier League (WPL), starting in Navi Mumbai on Friday. At the same time, Anjum cautioned that on-field performance will ultimately determine the winner of the competition on February 5 in Vadodara.

Before last year’s mega auction, UPW released all players and retained uncapped Delhi batter Shweta Sehrawat. With a new head coach in Abhishek Nayar, UPW have a new skipper in Meg Lanning, the most tactically astute captain in women's cricket.

Apart from buying back Deepti Sharma, Sophie Ecclestone, Kranti Gaud, and Kiran Navgire, UPW have match-winners like Shikha Pandey, Deandra Dottin, Chloe Tryon, and Phoebe Litchfield in their ranks, as they aim to win the WPL for the first time.
