Table of Contents

UP Warriorz (UPW) is ready to turn the page after a challenging Women’s Premier League 2025 season. Following a strategic reboot during the November 2025 Mega Auction, the franchise has emerged with a new leader, a powerhouse batting lineup, and a coaching staff led by the innovative Abhishek Nayar.

With a purse of INR 14.5 crore, the Warriorz were the most influential team in the auction room, securing legendary Australian captain Meg Lanning and bringing back their core through Right-to-Match (RTM) cards. As they prepare for their opener against Gujarat Giants on January 10, the Purple and Yellow army looks like a formidable title contender.
