Royal Challengers Bangalore: Former India opener Aakash Chopra believes Sri Lanka skipper Chamari Athapaththu and former West Indies big-hitting batter Deandra Dottin could become the most sought-after names in the upcoming Women’s Premier League (WPL) auction to be held on December 9 in Mumbai.

Overlooked in the inaugural WPL auction earlier this year, Chamari has kept her base price for the upcoming auction at INR 30 lakh. She was signed on by Sydney Thunder as a last-minute overseas replacement player in the WBBL.

In the competition, Chamari, 33, was the Player of the Tournament by amassing 511 runs at an average of 42.58, and a strike rate of 129.69.
