Ahead of the WPL Auction in Mumbai on Saturday, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) head coach Luke Williams feels that they have good 'nucleus' of Indian players in their squad.

The likes of top Smriti Mandhana, Richa Ghosh, Renukua Singh and Shreyanka Patil are the star Indian players in the RCB squad.

Williams, who won the Women’s Big Bash League and Women’s Hundred Championship in the past, is excited for auction and aims to build a strong squad for the upcoming season.

“We’ve spent plenty of time getting organised and feel like we’ve gone through all the different combinations and possibilities. So excited to see what happens,” Williams said ahead of the auction.

“I think there’d be countless, but we’ve probably got down to four or five different main possibilities of how we think it will work out. But again, auctions can be unpredictable, so we continue to throw left field ideas that might happen, but we’re really, really comfortable with our plans and looking forward to the auction,” he added.

With seven slots to fill and Rs. 3.35 crore in the purse, RCB will be looking to add more local and overseas talent in the auction.

“With five players in the Indian side from RCB the other night, it’s a really good nucleus of Indian players. We’ve got some really exciting overseas talent and are looking to add to our squad at the auction with both overseas and local talent. So I think we have a really strong squad looking forward to the season ahead,” Williams said.
