Wednesday's Women's Hockey India League 2026 mini auction witnessed remarkable price movements as Argentine defender Agustina Gorzelany commanded the highest bid at INR 42 lakh. Shrachi Rarh Bengal Tigers secured this premium signing after intense competition from multiple franchises. Indian midfielder Monika achieved breakthrough success by becoming the most expensive domestic player at INR 15 lakh, also joining Bengal Tigers. Her previous season saw no buyers, making this turnaround particularly noteworthy. The auction featured over 100 players competing for positions across four teams.

JSW Soorma Hockey Club, Ranchi Royals, SG Pipers, and Shrachi Rarh Bengal Tigers operated under a INR 2 crore salary cap while building balanced rosters. Maria Jose Granatto earned INR 34 lakh from Delhi SG Pipers, while Valentina Raposo Ruiz de los Llanos secured INR 30 lakh with Bengal Tigers. Former top earner Udita returned to SG Pipers at her base price of INR 10 lakh. Strategic bidding wars characterized the afternoon session as franchises pursued international stars alongside emerging Indian talent.
