New Delhi, 19th October 2023: JSW and GMR co-owned franchise Delhi Capitals today revealed their list of retained and released players ahead of the Women's Premier League auction which is set to be held later this year. The Delhi-based franchise has retained a total of 15 players, including 5 overseas players.
Wicketkeeper-batter Aparna Mondal, opener Jasia Akhter, and Amerian fast bowling all-rounder Tara Norris have been released from the squad ahead of the auction.
Speaking on the development, Head Coach Jonathan Batty said, “It wasn’t an easy decision at all for us to let go of these players. They were all a crucial part of our very memorable inaugural season, and I wish them all the very best. We’ve got a solid squad in place, and will aim to make it more complete at the upcoming auction.”
Assistant Coach Hemlata Kala said, "The franchise organised a couple of off-season camps over the last few months, which has allowed us as a coaching group to have a look at the available talent, and also assess the physical condition and skills of our existing players. We’re hoping for a successful auction going into the new season.”
Delhi Capitals reached the final of the inaugural Women’s Premier League, losing to Mumbai Indians in the title clash. Please find below the names of the retained players ahead of this year’s auction.
Overseas Players: Meg Lanning (C), Jess Jonassen, Marizanne Kapp, Alice Capsey, Laura Harris.
Indian Players: Jemimah Rodrigues, Shafali Verma, Shikha Pandey, Poonam Yadav, Radha Yadav, Arundhati Reddy, Taniya Bhatia, Minnu Mani, Sneha Deepthi, Titas Sadhu.
