The mini-auction of the WPL recently took place at the Grand Hyatt Kochi in Kochi, Kerala, were 150 players went under the hammer, with 25 players were sold across the five franchises, while 125 shortlisted players went unsold. As this was a mini-auction so there was not much changes in the squad. The franchises just added back-ups and important players.
The action will next move on to Mumbai, where the Cricket Club of India's Brabourne Stadium will host 11 matches along with the final. On January 26 the Mumbai leg will start. The league stage will last until February 3, and after that the top four teams will advance to the playoffs.
