— Women's Premier League (WPL) (@wplt20) January 10, 2026With a cameo of 30-ball 44, youngster Anushka Sharma grabbed eyeballs. While this is not the first time Anushka got the attention, in the mega auction, the MP cricketer became the most talked about players, attracting bids from all five franchises. Known for her hard-hitting abilities and utility off-spin bowling, her steady rise in the domestic circuit got her many bids, but the GG Women outbid the others and secured her services for INR 45 Lakh.
