Delhi Capitals sign Kiran Navgire for 75 lakh after bidding war
Delhi Capitals bought Kiran Navgire for 75 lakh after Mumbai Indians joined the bidding.
Delhi Capitals made Kiran Navgire their first acquisition of the auction after a bidding contest with Mumbai Indians. The franchise paid 75 lakh rupees for the batter, nearly doubling her base price. Navgire will join Jemimah Rodrigues's side for the coming season.
The purchase marked the first confirmed sale of the day. Delhi Capitals moved quickly to secure the player once the bidding opened. The move strengthens their batting options ahead of the tournament.
Navgire now enters a Delhi Capitals squad that includes several established names. Her addition gives the team another middle-order option with proven domestic form.

Delhi Capitals spent their first pick on a domestic batter rather than a headline overseas name. That choice suggests they rate Navgire's power-hitting enough to build an innings around her in the middle order.
