All-rounder Deepti Sharma is the most expensive player of UP Warriorz team. The franchises retained her for WPL 2025 at price of ₹2.60 crore. She is a versatile all-rounder, a genuine wicket-taker, and a dependable performer under pressure, making her an invaluable asset to the team.
The team of UP Warriorz looks a balanced team where they have 6 professional batters, 4 professional bowlers, and 9 top-class All-rounders. However, this team lacks a fast bowling attack which is very important in T20 cricket. This is a weak section and the rest depends on luck.
