Maylee’s Angels; Wired868 picks its WPL Round One All-Star team

Way to go, ladies! The Women’s Premier League (WPL) is up and running and, despite the obvious rust, some players have already begun to assert themselves.

Wired868 wants to recognise the best performers in each round. These might not necessarily be the WPL’s best players. But they sure played well this week!
