RCB Full Squad: Complete List Of Players After WPL Auction 2023
Royal Challengers Bangalore ended up with a star-studded squad at the end of the Women's Premier League (WPL) auction on Monday with India opener Smriti Mandhana becoming the highest-paid cricketer in the entire process with Rs 3.4 crore. The team also boasted of talented Team India players like Renuka Singh and Richa Ghosh while Sophie Devine and Ellyse Perry provide the support on the international talent front. Along with the youth on offer, the RCB franchise also made two smart picks in signing the experienced duo of Heather Knight and Dane van Niekerk for their respective base prices.
"Everyone knows Mandhana and (Australia's Elysse) Perry -- Rs 1.7 crore); we were pretty committed to the couple of people we wanted to get. We're very happy to get such quality players. It's a dream result for us to get Mandhana, Perry and (Sophie) Devine (Rs 50 lakh)," RCB Director of Cricket Mike Hesson said during a media interaction.
"Smriti has got plenty of captaincy experience and is familiar with the Indian conditions, so highly likely (she'll be the captain)." Mandhana, who watched the auction with her team cheering each bid, was ecstatic.
"We have been watching auction of men's (players). It is such a big moment for women to have an auction of this sort. The whole thing is exacting. RCB's legacy is big, they have built a big fan-base. Hope we both can together build a big team," Mandhana said.
RCB Complete Squad: Smriti Mandhana (INR 3.4 crore), Sophie Devine (INR 50 lakh), Ellyse Perry (INR 1.7 crore), Renuka Singh (INR 1.5 crore), Richa Ghosh (INR 1.9 crore), Erin Burns (INR 30 lakh), Disha Kasat (INR 10 lakh), Indrani Roy (INR 10 lakh), Shreyanka Patil (INR 10 lakh), Kanika Ahuja (35 lakh), Asha Shobana (INR 10 lakh), Heather Knight (INR 40 lakh), Dane van Niekerk (INR 30 lakh), Preeti Bose (INR 30 lakh), Poonam Khemnar (INR 10 lakh), Komal Zanzad (INR 25 lakh), Megan Schutt (INR 40 lakh), Sahana Pawar (INR 10 lakh)

"I Noticed...": Rohit Sharma On Learnings From 'Captain' Virat Kohli
During his tenure as captain of the Indian Test team, Virat Kohli led the side to series wins in Australia, a feat which his former counterparts had to failed to achieve. Not only that, but the team also reached the final of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) final in 2021. During his time at the helm, India developed an aggressive brand of cricket, and were at times unplayable, especially on home soil. Rohit Sharma, who replace Kohli as India's all-format captain in 2022, credited the 34-year-old for improvement in his leadership skills.
Rohit's comments came after India hammered Australia by an innings and 132 runs in the first Test in Nagpur on Saturday.
"When I was playing as a player, Virat was captaining then. I noticed one thing that, no matter if we don't get a wicket, but that pressure has to be there so that the opposition makes a mistake. That is something I learned when Virat was captaining and these guys were bowling. That is what I try to do now, apply that pressure, don't expect wicket every ball, just keep putting the ball in the right areas. Let the pitch help you," Rohit said at the post-match press conference.
In the first Test, spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja eviscerated Australia in just over two hours to hand India a crushing innings-and-132-run victory Saturday inside three days.
The hosts took a commanding first-innings lead of 223 in Nagpur, then skittled out Australia for 91 in an extended second session to take a 1-0 lead in the four-match series.
