UP Warriorz
The UP Warriorz captain, Alyssa Healy, has been the pick of the batters in the recent WPL matches, and the runs from Chamari Athapaththu, Grace Harris, and Deepti Sharma, have been quite handy for the team too. Sophie Ecclestone and Rajeshwari Gayakwad, the experienced left-arm orthodox spinners for UP-W, have been taking the bulk of the wickets for the team, but they still need other bowlers to step up to help them out in the upcoming matches.
