Representing “Fiery Yet Feminine”, the jersey is more than sportswear; it’s a narrative of the state’s rich heritage woven into the very threads of the fabric.

The new jersey marks the celebration of the pioneering spirit of the women of Uttar Pradesh. It draws from the well of inspiration left by female icons and groups such as Rani Laxmi Bai, Sucheta Kriplani, Arundhati Bhattacharya, and the formidable Gulabi Gang.

“In the competitive cricket arena, UP Warriorz stands for both strength and compassion, striking a balance these icons have exemplified,” said Jinisha Sharma – Director, Capri Sports. “Our athletes, much like these remarkable women, are fierce competitors united by passion. This jersey symbolizes the power with heart, a testament to the true spirit of UP’s trailblazing women.”

Designed with vibrant hues and elements that showcase the tenacity and robust spirit of the palash, the jersey embodies the ability to thrive amidst adversity. It represents the powerful spirit that propels both the UP Warriorz team and the extraordinary women who have forged paths in the face of formidable challenges.

The UP Warriorz’s new jersey is a symbol of cultural pride and the unyielding spirit of the people of Uttar Pradesh, ready to be worn by athletes who share the same fiery resilience as the icons it honours.

Led by Alyssa Healy, the UP Warriorz put in fantastic performance in the inaugural season of the Women’s Premier League, as they finished third in 2023. In season 2, kitted in their smartly and thoughtfully put together jerseys, the Warriorz will be keen for a better finish, as that would give their fans in Uttar Pradesh and in the cricketing family yet another reason to rejoice and celebrate.
