Top 3 blunders at WPL 2026 Mega Auction
While several teams made strong, well-planned acquisitions but some of their decisions raised questions.
2. UP Warriorz choose to pick Deepti Sharma for higher price than retaining
UP Warriorz’s decision to release Deepti Sharma only to buy her back for a massive INR 3.2 crore through the RTM card grabbed immense attention. Had they retained her, UPW would have paid INR 3.5 crore, but releasing her and re-entering a bidding war handed Delhi Capitals the chance to push the price up.
While UPW ultimately saved a small amount, the unnecessary risk, especially for a player they always intended to bring back, made little sense. However, the decision to get her back was her past performances for the franchise and recent heroics at the Women's ODI World Cup.
