Today, the mega auction of WPL 2027 is being organized in the beautiful city of Kochi, Kerala, in which the eyes of the whole world are on which player will go to which team and who will get the biggest rain of money. A total of 146 outstanding players have been shortlisted for this year’s auction, which includes 119 Indian and 27 veteran foreign players. All the franchises are entering the field with their own strategies, but UP Warriors have the biggest purse of Rs 3.75 crore, while Mumbai Indians are left with only Rs 90 lakh. Before this exciting auction, cricket pundits have decided on the names of the 3 biggest players who have a strong possibility of getting the highest bid today and breaking all the old records. Let us know in detail who are the three big guns for whom a great war can be seen between the franchises today.
Sophie Molineux: It will rain money on all-rounder with base price of Rs 50 lakh
The first and biggest name in the list of all-rounders is Australia’s star player. Sophie Molineau Its base price has been kept at Rs 50 lakh. Sophie Molineau is not only an excellent left-arm spin bowler, but she also has the amazing ability to bat explosively in the lower order of the innings.
Apart from this, the biggest USP that he has is his excellent leadership skills. Recently, under the captaincy of Sophie Molineau, Australia women’s team won the title of T20 World Cup 2026. Her current form is also very good and she has been Australia’s most successful bowler this year with 16 wickets. Since UP Warriors have the biggest purse and are in dire need of experienced senior players, there could be a huge bidding war among the franchises to get Sophie Molineau in their court, due to which she could be among the most expensive players of the auction.
Chamari Athapaththu: Sri Lankan captain with base price of Rs 30 lakh will bring riches
Current captain of Sri Lanka women’s cricket team and one of the most dangerous all-rounders in world cricket. Chamari Atapattu This is the second biggest attraction of this auction. His base price has been fixed at Rs 30 lakh, but considering his performance on the field, it is believed that the bid on his name can reach crores.
Chamari Atapattu is currently the world’s third all-rounder in the T20 format. Although he was earlier released by UP Warriors, his aggressive opening batting and his ability to change the game with his spin bowling makes him the first choice for every franchise. He has long captaincy experience in international cricket. Considering his ability to score stormy runs at the beginning of the innings, there is every expectation that he will fetch a lot of money in today’s auction.
Vrinda Dinesh: There will be a war for the young batsman with a base price of Rs 10 lakh.
The third and most surprising name in this list is the young Indian batsman. Vrinda Dinesh Whose base price is only Rs 10 lakh. Even though he has only 10 matches of experience in WPL in which he has scored 102 runs, his recent performance has been so explosive that everyone has become a fan of his batting.
This year has been very wonderful for Vrinda Dinesh. She scored a total of 171 runs at a whirlwind strike rate of 176.28 in the Women’s Asia Cup Rising Stars tournament. After this, while playing for India A, he played very strong innings on home and foreign tours against strong teams like Australia and England. Recently, in the Maharani T20 Trophy 2026, he has proved his excellent form by scoring 256 runs in just 7 innings. Given the demand for young and uncapped or less experienced Indian talent, teams like Delhi Capitals and UP Warriors may go all out to buy Vrinda, with his price expected to increase several times more than his base price.
UP Warriors have the biggest purse, the picture of teams can change
In this great battle to be held today, all the five franchises are ready to implement their strategy. UP Warriors have the biggest fund of Rs 3.75 crore, which clearly means that they are in the strongest position to buy the players of their choice at the auction table.
At the same time, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Gujarat Giants and Delhi Capitals also have more than Rs 1 crore left, due to which they can also play big bets as per their strategy. Since Mumbai Indians have a low budget (Rs 90 lakh), they will have to make smart picks very wisely. Overall, this WPL 2027 auction is all set to write many new pages in the history of women’s cricket, where today it will be decided which team emerges as the most balanced and lethal in the upcoming season.
