WPL 2026: Top 3 Players Royal Challengers Bengaluru Must Target in the WPL Mega Auction

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) had an amazing time in the Women's Premier League tournament, with their first-ever WPL in the tournament's second edition. However, their previous run was forgettable, even with promising and experienced campaigners. 
The team's grit and determination will not disappoint the spectators in the upcoming edition, as the 2026 WPL Mega Auction presents a major restructuring opportunity for all teams. 

It is no surprise that RCB would not leave any stone unturned to get itself a formidable arsenal to play with. With that said, here are the top three players that RCB should target from the WPL Mega Auction.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru Women's 2026 WPL Retained Players: Smriti Mandhana, Richa Ghosh, Ellyse Perry, Shreyanka Patil

1. Amelia Kerr

Amelia Kerr is one of the star all-rounders in the current women's cricket ecosystem. Be it the bat or the bowl, the White Fern's player has had an instrumental role for her team in most of the matches. It was a surprise for many after seeing her being released by her former franchise, the Mumbai Indians. It will be intriguing to see her under the hammer at the 2026 WPL Mega Auction.

With RCB releasing the swashbuckling Kiwi batter Sophie Devine, the team can include her batting expertise in Kerr to bolster the strong batting attack. She can also be a handy spinner for obtaining crucial wickets. Kerr's WPL stats include a commendable 437 runs and 40 wickets in just 29 matches.
