Sneh Rana, Poonam Yadav, and Lea Tahuhu are among the big names released by their respective Women's Premier League (WPL) franchises ahead of the auction in the lead-up to the third season, in early 2025.
While the BCCI is yet to confirm the date of the auction, multiple sources said it could be held early December.
Delhi Capitals (DC), the losing finalists in both seasons of the WPL so far, has released leg-spinner Poonam Yadav, along with the likes of Australian top-order batter Laura Harris, and the uncapped duo of Ashwani Kumari and Aparna Mondal.
Poonam, who hasn't featured in international cricket since March 2022, was one of the mainstays of the Delhi franchise's bowling attack in the inaugural season. She, however, failed to get a game last season.
Inaugural WPL champions Mumbai Indians retained their strong core of international stars including captain Harmanpreet Kaur, Amelia Kerr, Hayley Matthews, Chloe Tryon, and Shabnim Ismail.
They have released Fatima Jaffer, Humaira Kazi, Priyanka Bala, and England pacer Issy Wong.
