Top 3 uncapped players to watch out for in WPL 2026
This year, WPL is expected to witness raw talent showcase their brilliance and grab eyeballs, which can ultimately show them the way to the national team.
Milly Illingworth
Australia’s Milly Illingworth is another exciting young name expected to be watched closely in the upcoming WPL. The right-arm fast bowler earned a maiden WPL call-up after being picked by defending champions Mumbai Indians for INR 10 lakh, despite going unsold twice before the accelerated rounds. Illingworth comes with a slingy action, along with a bouncer that has already troubled big batters in the WBBL.
In T20s, she has picked up 18 wickets in 28 WBBL innings at an economy of 7.28. Having also featured in the 2023 U19 Women’s T20 World Cup, Illingworth now gets the opportunity to play alongside world-class players at MI. If she adapts quickly to Indian conditions, the young quick could be an X-factor in WPL 2026.
