Acquiring multiple World Cup-winning Australian star Georgia Wareham for INR 40 lakh ahead of the TATA WPL 2024 auction felt like a steal by RCB. While the likes of Mandhana, Perry, and Shreyanka were the big stars of the title-winning campaign, Wareham quietly made a massive all-round contribution. She not only picked seven wickets with her legspin, but also ended up with the best batting strilke-rate for anyone in the tournament at 163.23. Warreham was among the wickets once again in 2025, picking up 12 of them at an impressive average of 21. After an intense bidding war between her former team RCB and Gujarat Giants (GG), it was the latter that acquired her services for WPL 2026 at INR 1 crore.
