The 2026 edition of WPL Will be played from January 9 to February 6<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

WPL 2026 Schedule:<\/strong> The 2026 edition of the Women\u2019s Premier League will be played from January 9 to February 5 in Navi Mumbai and Vadodara. The announcement was made by WPL chairman Jayesh George in New Delhi on Thursday (November 27) ahead of the WPL 2026 mega auction. The season\u2019s opener will be played at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on January 9, and Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara will host the final match on February 5.<\/p>\n

The league which is usually held during the February- March window has been moved ahead this year to accommodate the men\u2019s T20 World Cup which commences on February 7.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe upcoming edition of the WPL will be played in Navi Mumbai and the final will be held in Vadodara,” WPL Chairperson Jayesh George announced his opening remarks at the WPL auction.<\/p>\n

The league once again will be played in a caravan model, with the first half the tournament will be played at the DY Patil Stadium, the same venue where India lifted the women\u2019s ODI World Cup earlier this month, before moving to Vadodara, where the final will be held on February 5.<\/p>\n

Mumbai Indians are the defending champions of the league that is three seasons old.<\/p>\n

UPW signed Deepti<\/strong><\/p>\n

Deepti Sharma expectedly fetched the big bucks at the WPL auction here on Thursday as UP Warriorz used the Right to Match card for the India all-rounder, securing her services for Rs 3.20 crore.<\/p>\n

Mumbai Indians bought last season\u2019s join highest wicket taker New Zealand all-rounder Amelia Kerr for Rs 3 crore.<\/p>\n

The seasoned duo of Australian Meg Lanning and Kiwi Sophie Devine were also among the top buys in the marquee set that featured eight players.<\/p>\n

Gujarat Giants bought Devine for Rs 2 crore while UP Warriorz bagged Lanning, who led Delhi Capitals to three consecutive finals, for Rs 1.90 crore after a bidding war with DC.<\/p>\n

Warriorz, who entered the auction with the highest prize purse Rs 14.5 crore, was very active as they exercised their RTM card once again to buy back leading England spinner Sophie Ecclestone for Rs 85 Lakh.<\/p>\n

South African opener Laura Wolvaardt went to DC for Rs 1.10 crore while the Giants purchased India pacer Renuka Singh for Rs 60 lakh. Australia captain Alyssa Healy was the first name to go under the hammer and surprisingly found no takers.<\/p>\n
