WPL 2023: Best XI of costliest players from auction
These players attracted the franchises and became the top picks at the auction.
5. Harmanpreet Kaur
Mumbai Indians (MI) snapped up Harmanpreet Kaur in the WPL Player Auction at INR 1.8 crore. The current India Women’s captain is an incredible addition to the MI squad as the 33-year-old has achieved a lot in her 14 years of international career. As a batter and skipper, her record is phenomenal.
Based on Kaur’s achievements as Indian captain, the MI team management could appoint her as their skipper. With quality players such as Yastika Bhatia, Hayley Matthews, Amelia Kerr, Issy Wong, and Heather Graham on the side, Kaur could help MI win a title with her leadership qualities.
Apart from captaincy, her role will be vital as a batter too as she has proven her mettle with the bat in T20Is. So far, the veteran has notched up 3006 runs with a hundred and nine fifties in 150 matches. With these batting figures, she is also the fourth-highest run-scorer in Women's T20Is. Besides international cricket, she was an important name in WBBL as well due to her all-round talent.
