The Women’s Premier League in 2024:
The WPL is all set to raise its curtain in February 2024. There is no official announcement for that. According to the sources, the tournament will be played in two cities Mumbai and Bangalore. The format will be the same as the previous edition of the tournament. In a double round-robin format, the teams will be locking with each other. The table topper will be qualifying directly for the finals. Others will be fighting to reach the finals.
According to a previous report, the tournament was set to be in a home-and-away format. But in recent resources, the tournament will be played in two cities only. The teams will complete their set of matches in one city and will move to another. Those two cities are excited to host the tournament. The auction will be organized in December.
Look Back to WPL 2023:
WPL started its journey in February 2023. The five teams took part in this tournament. Harmanpreet Kaur was leading Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore was led by Smriti Mandhana, UP Warriorz was led by Alyssa Healy, Gujrat Giants was led by Beth Mooney and Meg Lanning was the captain of Delhi Capitals. The tournament was played only in Mumbai.
Smriti Mandhana’s RCB faced disappointments all over the season. Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals locked horns in Mumbai. Both teams played well. But Harmanpreet Kaur rocked the stage. Mumbai Indians became the first winner of the WPL.
