UP Warriorz’s Vrinda Dinesh has been ruled out of the remainder of the 2024 Women’s Premier League after suffering a shoulder injury during the match against Mumbai Indians at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, on 28 February. The WPL governing council has approved wicket-keeper batter Uma Chetry as a replacement for her.

"The UP Warriorz prioritises all our players' health and would like to wish her a very speedy recovery. We hope to see her back in action soon. In the interim, Uma Chetry will replace her in the squad," said the franchise in a press release.

The UP Warriorz have signed wicket-keeper batter Uma Chetry as a replacement at her reserve price of INR 10 lakh.

Uma recently played for India A against England A and was also a part of the victorious India A Emerging squad that won the ACC Emerging Women’s Asia Cup 2023.

In the two matches that she played for UP Warriorz before her injury, Vrinda scored 0 and 18 runs. She did not bat in the match against Mumbai Indians.
