List of players sold at WPL Auction 2023

History was made after the inaugural WPL Auction 2023 was conducted successfully on Monday, February 13, in Mumbai. All five franchises battled it out to acquire the services of their desired set of players and assembled their unit for the upcoming inaugural edition of the tournament.

The auction began on the highest of notes, in the form of an intense bidding war between the Mumbai Indians (MI) and the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for the services of Smriti Mandhana.

The winning bid of ₹3.4 crore was eventually made by RCB and the ace batter eventually ended up as the most expensive acquisition at the WPL Auction 2023.

England's Nat Sciver garnered the highest amount in terms of overseas players. MI made a bid of ₹3.4 crore to rope her in.

The majority of the franchises understandably spent the bulk of their auction purses in the initial stages of the auction itself. The sides then slowly built their squad as the auction progressed and applied the finishing touches during the accelerated round, where each franchise was asked to submit 15 players each.

Another subsequent second and third accelerated rounds were conducted where seven players were asked to be submitted by each team.
