The UP Warriorz have secured Australian all-rounder Grace Harris for Rs 30 lakh in the WPL 2027 auction, a move former India captain Anjum Chopra described as an "absolute steal." Harris returns to the franchise after a season with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), accepting a significant reduction from her previous Rs 75 lakh salary.
Harris brings a wealth of experience, having scored 818 runs and taken 15 wickets in 31 WPL matches. The UP Warriorz also made Sophie Molineux their most expensive purchase at Rs 1.10 crore. Other notable additions include Indian all-rounders Sneh Rana and Asha Sobhana.
With these new signings, the UP Warriorz, who have previously reached the Eliminator but never won the title, are aiming for their maiden WPL championship in the 2027 season. They will be led by skipper Meg Lanning, with Deepti Sharma also a key player in the squad.
