The top-scorer in the UP Warriorz batting lineup this season, Phoebe Litchfield suffered a quad injury which effectively ruled her out. The Aussie scored 243 runs in six matches at an average of 40.50 with a strike rate of 154.77, including two half-centuries.

To replace her, England wicketkeeper-batter Amy Jones will join UP Warriorz for a price of INR 50 lakh after going unsold in the WPL 2026 auction.
