Healy had a great outing while handling the captaincy responsibility of the side in the absence of their regular skipper Meg Lanning in the series against India in India. Which Australia won by 4-1 December last year.
Healy is the destructive opening batter, who is the most important weapon for the UP franchise that will provide them a good foundation for a huge total on board, on top of that, she is having a good record as a captain on the international level too.
To lessen her burden, the team also have Tahlia McGrath, the third-highest run-scorer in the India versus Australia series last year, and the India’s U19 world cup winning star Shweta Sehrawat, who scored the highest runs during the U-19 World Cup 2023 Journey.
Deepti Sharma
Deepti Sharma is the one all-rounder every team want in their team, but UP Warriorz at last bought her services, which is a big plus factor ahead of the tournament that will boast their team’s confidence.
Hails from UP, Deepti Sharma, is India’s most trusted player and the current third-ranked all-rounder in the ICC Women’s T20I all-rounder rankings.
Weaknesses of team UP Warriorz
Lack of Finishers
There is no denying the fact that the UP Warriorz have strong top-order. But the cause of concern for the side is, who will finish them the games?
