What does RCB chairman Prathamesh Mishra say
Regarding the first WPL auction, RCB chairman Prathamesh Mishra said about this – RCB always wanted to buy a women’s team. We started our preparations months before the WPL team tender. An important link in that process was the appointment of former Indian cricketer Vanitha VR as our scout. Vanitha has immense knowledge about contemporary cricketers in the domestic circuit as well as around the world. Through his inputs and our “RCB Hinterland” scouting process, we started our evaluation process ahead of time. However, due to the lack of readily available data on women’s cricket, we had to put potential players through several scouting phases. We then shortlisted the initial top-100 names and then proceeded to finalize their names as per the RCB Play Bold philosophy.

Smriti Mandhana was in the plan and we executed it well
Smriti Mandhana was central to our plan and I am delighted that we have built a team of experienced and bold players who not only have a champions mindset but also our core brand philosophy of ‘Going All Out’, Mishra added. also corresponds to The mix of young and dynamic talent will give us the flexibility to experiment and take bold approaches. We have been receiving a great response from our fans since the auction and I am glad that we were able to achieve what we set out to achieve. And now it’s time to kick start a spectacular first season of WPL.

Plan fit 120%
On the strategy behind the aggressive bidding during the auction and the players they signed, RCB Director (Cricket Operations) Mike Hesson said, ‘Not only did we get our auction dynamics right, but we also lived up to our expectations. . The team we have selected is not only 100% but 120% similar to the team we had thought of. The way our scouting team has gone out and tracked down players worth buying, as well as spotting emerging talents for us, is commendable. Smriti Mandhana can bowl bold and is highly respected by Indian players and abroad. Ellyse Perry is a very experienced and powerful player. He can bat anywhere from first down to sixth down; She can bowl bouncers while bowling and has a lot of experience playing in India. She will add a unique leadership value to the team. We have an exciting group of cricketers and I am very proud to be a part of this team.
