Batters RCB should target in WPL auction 2026 –

The WPL 2026 auction is just a few days away, and the excitement around it is real. Especially, given the fact that there will be some high-profile names entering the auction, the interest has only increased many-fold. The WPL 2024 winners came up with a decent WPL retention 2026 list — that included skipper Smriti Mandhana, Ellyse Perry, Richa Ghosh and Shreyanka Patil, but would have a lot of work to do, come the auction on November 27 in Delhi.

InsideSport takes a look at the players that RCB can target at WPL 2026 auction.

Batter RCB should bid for in WPL auction

Deandra Dottin: This West Indies all-rounder was released Gujarat Giants, and should be on RCB’s radar. She has enough experience of playing around the world, can bowl and can hit big shots.

Pooja Vastrakar: If Pooja is fit, then another fast-bowling all-rounder along with Perry, would give RCB a lot of options. She has injury issues though, and missed the Women’s World Cup due to the same reason.

Radha Yadav: She did not have the best World Cup, but can be a hand left-arm spinner. She is a gun fielder too, and maybe, with some confidence, can alleviate her performances as well.

Saikia Ishaque: She has been one of the more successful spinners in the WPL, picking up 25 wickets in 22 matches. Her economy has been impressive too, at just 7.62.

Kiran Navgire: This 31-year-old player is one of the strongest hitters of the cricket ball in women’s cricket. She boasts of a strike-rate of over 140, but one of the concerning factors is her average of 17. But she is tailor-made for some crunch situations. Could be a handy batter.
