It is all simmering nicely in Mumbai as the representatives of the franchises stream in and make themselves comfortable. Feb 13, 2023 01:41 PM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: The bidding for teams Just the sheer amount of money splashed in the bidding process by franchise owners for teams took the WPL’s brand value past those of established women’s leagues like the WBBL. A record collective bid of ₹ 4699.99 crore was garnered from the five team owners, and another ₹ 951 crore from broadcasting giant Viacom18 for the global television and digital media rights for the first five-year cycle (2023-27). All this is even before a title sponsor has been announced. Feb 13, 2023 01:30 PM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: Some big names not in the top cap South Africa stars like Marizanne Kapp, Shabnim Ismail and Mignon du Preez have their base price at ₹ 40 lakh.

There is no home and away format yet, though. All matches will be played at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai or the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. A total of 22 matches are set to be played. Feb 13, 2023 01:05 PM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: Associate nations The auctions rules doesn’t make it mandatory for teams to pick a player from associate nations but there is an incentive for picking one. Teams can field a maximum of four overseas players in their XIs but they have the option of including a fifth overseas player provided she is from an Associate nation. Feb 13, 2023 12:58 PM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: ‘Elephant in the room’ New Zealand captain Sophie Devine admitted during an interaction with reporters during the ongoing Women’s T20 World Cup that it is “naive” to think that the IPL auction is not going to be a distraction. Unlike the IPL, this is not the first women’s franchise tournament – England and Australia are among countries have been hosting their own for a number of years, but the fact remains that this is where even the biggest of players are set to get career-high paydays. Feb 13, 2023 12:37 PM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: A tournament ends for a new one to begin The Women’s T20 Challenge might turn into the answer for a trick question a couple of decades later – Which was the first women’s T20 league to be hosted by the BCCI? The tournament had three teams with rather generic names Supernovas, Trailblazers and Velocity. Even the name of the tournament itself was rather generic and the only reason fans could feel any affinity for those teams would be the players turning out in their colours. But, the fact remains that the four seasons of the Women’s T20 Challenge, coupled with the packed stadiums for women’s international matches in the last few years in India, strengthened the case for the WPL to exist and so, credit where it’s due. Feb 13, 2023 12:19 PM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: The potential big buys As stated earlier, it is quite difficult to predict who could end up fetching a big price tag in these auctions. That doesn’t mean we can’t try though. There is Smriti Mandhana, Harmanpreet Kaur, Deepti Sharma and Shafali Verma who seem like the best bets among Indians to fetch hefty prices. Shafali is certainly among the candidates for being the most expensive player of the auction. Then there are the stalwarts from Australia – Alyssa Healy, Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner and Meg Lanning. South Africa’s Marizanne Kapp and New Zealand’s Amelia Kerr are also players to watch out for. Feb 13, 2023 11:55 AM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: Throwback to the first IPL auction The WPL is expected to do for women’s cricket what IPL did for men’s cricket, the T20 format in particular, since its first season back in 2008. The auction for that was held on February 20, 2008. The players were picked in an eight-round process but each of the teams had selected a marquee Indian player prior to the auction who was then out of the auction process. So Mumbai chose Sachin Tendulkar, Delhi picked Virender Sehwag, Kolkata went for Sourav Ganguly, Bangalore for Rahul Dravid and Punjab for Yuvraj Singh. VVS Laxman, initially named as an icon player for the Deccan Chargers, voluntarily gave up his status to give his team more money to bid for players. Only Rajasthan and Chennai did not have any icon players. After a lukewarm start, with late spin great Shane Warne fetching a bid of $450,000 being the highlight, things changed when India’s 2007 T20 World Cup winning captain MS Dhoni’s name was pulled out of the bag. CSK bid $1.5 million for him and the rest, as they say, is history. Late Australia all-rounder Andrew Symonds became the most expensive foreign player, being bought by the erstwhile Deccan Chargers for $1.35 million. Younger lot of players like Rohit Sharma, Dinesh Karthik and Ishant Sharma also fetched hefty price tags, with the latter being more expensive than India’s pace stalwart Zaheer Khan. A number of players from the Indian U19 team that won the World Cup were also signed on youth contracts. The captain of that side was considered by the Delhi Daredevils but in the end, they decided to go for Pradeep Sangwan as they “didn’t want another captain”. It was RCB who went for that player in the end and Virat Kohli would go on to captain that team for eight seasons and become pretty much the face of the IPL. Feb 13, 2023 11:42 AM IST WPL Auction 2023 Live Updates: The numbers A total of 1,525 players registered for the inaugural Women’s Premier League Player Auction and the final list was pruned to 409 players.246 are Indians and 163 are overseas players of which 8 players are from associate nations. The total capped players are 202, uncapped players are 199 and 8 are from associate nations. A maximum of 90 slots are available with the five teams, with 30 being slotted for overseas players. Feb 13, 2023 11:24 AM IST WPL 2023 Auction Live Updates: The absence of CSK SRH, KKR and Punjab Kings are absent from the list of franchises but the absence of CSK is what made the biggest headlines. The franchise eventually stated that its decision to not take part in the bidding process to own a franchise in the league was a “strategic business decision”, which is exactly the kind of corportate jargon that fans love to hear, isn’t it? Feb 13, 2023 11:11 AM IST WPL 2023 Auction Live Updates: Base prices The base prices start at ₹ 10 lakh and the maximum is ₹ 50 lakh. It increases from the minimum to maximum by a factor of ₹ 10 lakh. Team India Captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Smriti Mandhana, Deepti Sharma and India’s Under-19 T20 World Cup-winning captain Shafali Verma are among the few Indians who have slotted themselves in the highest bracket.13 overseas players have also slotted themselves under the ₹ 50 lakh reserve price with the likes of Ellyse Perry, Sophie Ecclestone, Sophie Devine & Deandra Dottin to name a few. Feb 13, 2023 10:59 AM IST WPL 2023 Auction Live Updates: The venue The JIO Convention Centre in Mumbai is hosting the auction. The BCCI had to reportedly factor in myriad factors before deciding on the date and venue. This includes non-availability of a convenient place because of a number of them being booked for weddings! What’s a sports tournament compared to vows taken for life, eh? Feb 13, 2023 10:51 AM IST WPL 2023 Auction Live Updates: The teams The league is starting off with just five teams – Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals, Gujarat Giants, Lucknow Warriors and Royal Challengers Bangalore. The BCCI has stated that the number of teams, and thus the number of games, will be increased in future seasons. Four of these sides have confirmed head coaches – Jonathan Batty (DC), Rachael Haynes (Gujarat), Jon Lewis (UP) and Charlotte Edwards (MI). Feb 13, 2023 10:42 AM IST WPL 2023 Auction Live Updates: Hello and welcome! The WPL is here at last. Well, not yet, but it all begins with the auction, it is only now that teams will get faces to represent them and wear their jerseys. There is no CSK without MS Dhoni, no RCB without Virat Kohli, no Mumbai Indians without Sachin Tendulkar and many more and so, this auction is what will shape the identity of all the teams not just in the buildup for the first season of this league, but for the foreseeable future as well.

Can RCB still qualify in WPL?
The inaugural Women’s Premier League (WPL) 2023 edition has become a big hit. It has gained mileage as it proceeds towards the business end of the tournament. So far, the Harmanpreet Kaur-led Mumbai Indians (MI) have been on a roll, very much like their men’s counterpart in the Indian Premier League (IPL), and remain at the top of the points table with as many as five wins on the trot.
On Tuesday (March 14), MI defeated Gujarat Giants (GG) by 55 runs to confirm a spot in the playoffs. Thus, they became the first side to do so in WPL history. Apart from them, Meg Lanning-led Delhi Capitals (DC) have also performed well with four wins from five games. UP Warriorz Women (UPW) have two victories and an equal number of losses whereas GG have managed only a solitary triumph from five encounters.
Nonetheless, the Smriti Mandhana-led Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) remain at the bottom and are the only winless side. After five games, Mandhana & Co. have failed to get off the mark in the points table. To add to their woes, they have suffered big defeats in as many as four fixtures. 
EXPLAINED: How RCB can still end up in the top 3 To the surprise of many, RCB still has a slim chance. While they cannot finish in the top two, they still have a chance to enter the knockouts as the third-best side. Mandhana & Co. need to topple their opposition in their remaining three games.
Not only this, but RCB also need some favour from other teams. The Bengaluru franchise needs to hope UPW lose all of its remaining games. In addition, they need to pray that GG does not emerge on top in more than one game solely due to RCB’s poor NRR. As of now, it looks highly likely that MI and DC will end at the top two with UPW holding onto the third spot.
However, anything can still happen if RCB and GG come to the party. It is to be noted that the team who finishes at the top will directly enter the final. Meanwhile, an Eliminator will be held between the second-ranked and third-positioned sides. RCB’s last outing and the road ahead RCB face UPW in their next outing, on Wednesday evening (March 15) at the DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai.
The last time both sides faced each other saw the UP franchise demolish RCB by ten wickets. Mandhana & Co. batted first and only managed 138 all-out, which was chased down by UP with ten wickets and seven overs in hand. RCB go into this match after a last-over loss versus the DC unit, on Monday (March 13), where the latter won by six wickets while chasing 151.
A confident DC unit won the toss and opted to bowl first at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Navi Mumbai. Mandhana fell early for RCB as her poor form continued. She has only managed scores of 35, 23, 18, 4, and 8 so far in the five-team competition. Ellyse Perry’s 67 and Richa Ghosh’s 16-ball 37 not out propelled the team to 150 for 4.
However, it was just a par score. Meanwhile, DC were made to work hard in their run-chase. Alice Capsey, Jemimah Rodrigues, Marizanne Kapp and Jess Jonassen (15-ball 29 not out) stood tall to take their side home. Jonassen returned as the Player-of-the-Match for her rapid knock and whereas her teammate Shikha Pandey (3 for 239) also played a vital role in the victory.
At the post-match presentation, Smriti said, “Really good effort by our bowlers to take it till the 20th over. Definitely a lot of improvements but a lot of things to work on still. The partnership got us into the game, they both batted brilliantly. They used their experience to get us to a defendable total.
Not the best of the starts, including my batting. The first 14 overs really hurt us, even 10-15 runs more would have helped. Towards the fag-end of the tournament, the wickets are going to get slower. Even in the last game, spinners got the ball to turn and pace-off and slower balls were working.” After the game versus UPW, RCB will face two more games to play; against GG and MI respectively.
Will Mandhana, Ellyse Perry, and the likes fire on all cylinders with time running for RCB? Only time will tell.
