The 22-year-old Wyatt, who did not find any takers at the inaugural WPL auction last year, also bowls off-break occasionally.


"England attacking batter Danni Wyatt is set to represent Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the upcoming TATA Women's Premier League (WPL) 2025 season following a successful trade from UP Warriorz (UPW)," the WPL said in a statement.


"Originally acquired by UPW in the auction for INR 30 lakhs, Wyatt will move to RCB at her existing fee," the organisers added.


Wyatt brings a wealth of experience to RCB, having played 164 T20 Internationals for England, the highest number for any English player in the shortest format.
