UP Warriorz (UPW) have acquired Chinelle Henry as an injury replacement for Alyssa Healy for WPL 2025 after the Australia and UPW captain was ruled out of the tournament because of a stress injury in her right foot.

Alyssa Healy is set to miss the upcoming season of the Women’s Premier League, opting to rest after recurring foot injuries over the past year.

UP Warriorz on Monday drafted in Chinelle Henry as a replacement for injured Alyssa Healy for the upcoming edition of the Women's Premier League (WPL).

Healy is currently recovering from a stress reaction in her right foot, due to ruptures to her plantar fascia during the T20 World Cup in October. This injury made her miss the T20I leg of the series against England, where she played only as a batter and handed over wicketkeeping duties to Beth Mooney.

The defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have had to tweak their overseas roster despite not having a foreign signing at auction. Injuries and pullouts haven't helped RCB and UP Warriorz had to make a last-minute change as well with skipper Alyssa Healy ruled out due to injury.

UP Warriorz signed West Indies' Chinelle Henry to replace injured Alyssa Healy for the 2025 Women's Premier League season. Healy's absence due to persistent injuries left a significant gap filled by Henry,

UPW pick Chinelle Henry as injury replacement for Alyssa Healy; RCB pick Heather Graham and Kim Garth in place of Sophie Devine and Kate Cross.
