Kiran Navgire was acquired for INR 30 lakh (base price) by the UP Warriorz at the first-ever WPL auction. Kiran first grabbed everyone's attention when she smashed 162* off just 76 balls in the Senior Women's T20 Trophy, playing for Nagaland against Arunachal Pradesh at the ACA Stadium, Barsapara. She became the first Indian to score more than 150 runs in a T20 match. An innings laced with 16 sixes and 10 fours laid the marker. She followed her consistent performances with a fifty (69 off 34 balls) in the Women's T20 Challenge, playing for the Velocity against the Trailblazers. A multi talented athlete who has won plenty of medals in athletics and Javelin throw at local age-group and state level in the past, Kiran brings the power-hitting dimension to the Warriorz' table.
