Alyssa Healy, the captain of Australia and UP Warriorz, has decided to opt out of the forthcoming Women's Premier League due to a stress injury in her right foot. Her future in international cricket, post the ODI World Cup in India, is uncertain as she grapples with ongoing fitness challenges.

Having led UP Warriorz in the first two editions of the WPL, Healy was expected to make a significant impact in the third season. However, persistent injuries have plagued her performance, forcing her to miss key matches and reconsider her role in the team. The upcoming ODI World Cup is crucial in defining her pathway forward in cricket.

Despite these obstacles, Healy remains committed to her recovery, hoping to return stronger and contribute effectively to her team's success. Her goal is to lead Australia to victory and reclaim the ODI World Cup, reinforcing her dedication and resilience in the sport.
