2026 WPL Auction: UPW Buy Back Deepti, Ecclestone Via RTM; Healy Goes Unsold
Renuka Singh Thakur: UP Warriorz were expected to be busy in the marquee set of 2026 Women’s Premier League (WPL) mega auction, and they lived up to the billing by buying back India all-rounder Deepti Sharma and England spinner Sophie Ecclestone via RTM card.
But UPW also sprung a surprise by securing multiple World Cups-winning Australia captain Meg Lanning. Menwhile, Mumbai Indians bought back New Zealand’s leg-spin all-rounder Amelia Kerr, while Gujarat Giants also shelled out big money to buy New Zealand all-rounder Sophie Devine and India pacer Renuka Singh Thakur.
In a surprise outcome, Australia skipper Alyssa Healy went unsold at the auction, though there’s a hope that she could be back in the accelerated round.
