The player draft for the 2025 Women’s Uttarakhand Premier League was place in Dehradun, resulting in competitive squads for the four participating teams: Haridwar Storm, Mussoorie Thunders, Pithoragarh Hurricanes, and Tehri Queens. Each club finalised its roster by signing players from five categories: Icon Player, Category A, Category B, Category C, and Uncapped Players. With the draft completed, teams will begin preparing to compete in the Women’s UPL, which will begin on September 23, 2025.
The day began with Tehri Queens receiving the first pick following a Pick Order held on Friday evening to establish the order of the player draft. Tehri Queens selected Neelam Bhardwaj, who became the youngest female cricketer to record a List A double century in 2024. The Mussoorie Thunders were the second side to select their Icon Player, opting for Haldwani-born wicketkeeper-batsman Kanchan Parihar. Pithoragarh Hurricanes were automatically assigned Mansi Joshi as their marquee player after Haridwar Storm chose fellow wicketkeeper-batter Sweta Verma as their Icon Player.
Teams then assembled the remainder of their squads, following the Pick Order and having a maximum of two minutes to select one player in a given round. In total, 16 rounds were completed, including the Icon Player round, which allowed teams to construct squads of 16 players each from the Senior, Under-23, Under-19, and Uncapped categories, assuring representation across all age levels.
