Top 3 overseas batters to watch out for in WPL 2026

Hayley Matthews (Mumbai Indians)

West Indies all-rounder Hayley Matthews completes the list of overseas batters to watch. A key member of Mumbai Indians Women, Matthews has scored 758 runs in 29 WPL matches across the last three seasons. Retained ahead of the WPL 2026 auction, the franchise has shown strong faith in her explosive batting ability.

While her off-spin bowling is well-suited to Indian conditions, it is her aggressive batting at the top that makes her invaluable. Matthews’ ability to score quickly and boost the run rate could once again prove decisive for Mumbai Indians Women.
