The 30-year-old Mouni will also have the additional responsibility of captaining the Gujarat giants on her shoulders and the Australian team always shines in the toughest of conditions.

19 year old Titash Sadhu has impressed everyone with his bowling at the international level in recent times. After his brilliant performance in the Under-19 World Cup, Delhi Capitals bought him in last season's auction, but he was not given a chance in a single match. In last year's Asian Games final, Titash took 4 wickets for just 6 runs and played an important role in India winning the gold medal. It is expected that Titash Sadhu will perform very well in WPL 2024 also.
