NEW DELHI: Women's Premier League franchise Delhi Capitals bolstered their squad with four new signings at the auction held in Bengaluru on Sunday.
Scottish wicketkeeper Sarah Bryce was the team’s sole overseas acquisition, while young Indian talents Nandini Kashyap, N Charani and Niki Prasad were the other three picks for the two-time runners-up.
All-rounder N Charani emerged as the Capitals’ most expensive signing and fifth biggest of the 2025 auction, joining the team for Rs 55 lakh.
Having already reached the final twice, the franchise, boosted by four new players, will now look to go the distance in the next edition.
"It was a very good auction for us, to be honest. I've been with this WPL team for two seasons now, watching them closely and being involved in the auction and everything. We are a far stronger squad than we were last year. With Nandini and Sarah in the squad now, we are looking very good," said Sourav Ganguly, Director of Cricket, Delhi Capitals.
Delhi Capitals will play their first match of the season against Mumbai Indians, winners of the first WPL edition, on February 15 (Saturday) at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara.
