The first Women’s Premier League, a female equivalent of the IPL, is on the horizon and will represent a significant step forward for women’s cricket in India. This will occur this year from March 4 to March 26 in Mumbai. On February 13th in Mumbai, there will be a player auction for the league.

50 lakh is the highest base price while 10 lakh is the lowest. 12 crore are the funds that are available for a franchise. This implies that, unlike in the men’s IPL auction, a franchise might not be able to go all out to bag the player with the limited purse.

Just as the IPL has transformed men’s cricket in India, the WPL could revolutionize the women’s game in the country.

Even though it took the BCCI some time to respond to the demand for a professional women’s league from players abroad, the WPL’s valuation of $4669.99 crore demonstrates how well-liked the sport has become.

India recently won the inaugural Women’s Under-19 World Cup in South Africa, so the WPL couldn’t have come at a better time. The franchises will undoubtedly be interested in some of them.
