UPW Team WPL Players List 2026: UP Warriorz made some noteworthy acquisitions at the WPL 2026 mega auction on Thursday, with India all-rounder Deepti Sharma at the top of their list. Deepti became the most expensive player to be sold at the WPL 2026 auction as Warriorz used their Right to Match (RTM) card to acquire her for a staggering Rs 3.20 crore.
With 215 runs and 22 wickets, Deepti had an incredible 2025 ODI World Cup campaign and was named the Player of the Tournament for her superb all-round play.
The Warriorz made another big splash when they signed Australian legend Meg Lanning for Rs 1.90 crore. Lanning, who led DC to three straight finals, will now contribute her batting depth and leadership skills to the UP lineup.
