WPL 2027 Auction: Molineux becomes costliest pick; Scotland's Kathryn Bryce makes history

Sophie Molineux emerged as the costliest buy at the Women’s Premier League auction here on Wednesday, with UP Warriorz shelling out Rs 1.1 crore for the current Australian captain. UP Warriorz also recruited India all-rounder Sneh Rana for Rs 30 lakh. Delhi Capitals splurged Rs 75 lakh to rope in the hard-hitting Kiran Navgire, who also attracted bids from two-time WPL winners Mumbai Indians. The UP Warriorz franchise, which did not have a frontline specialist wicketkeeper last season, also picked up former India wicketkeeper-batter Sushma Verma for Rs 30 lakh.
