Former England women's head coach Jon Lewis has announced his departure from UP Warriorz in the Women's Premier League after a three-season stint. Lewis, who also held responsibilities with the England team, expressed his enthusiasm for the tournament, stating it offered a "fascinating insight into the depth of cricket in India."

Lewis's tenure with England ended on a challenging note following a series of disappointing performances, including an early exit from the T20 World Cup and a significant defeat in the Ashes series in Australia. Despite these setbacks, his leadership at UP Warriorz saw the team reach the knockout stages in their inaugural season, although they subsequently finished fourth and fifth in the following years.

This transition marks a significant moment for both Lewis and the UP Warriorz, as they look to rebuild and strategize for future successes in the league. The move also highlights the growing competitiveness and global interest in women's cricket, particularly in leagues like the Women's Premier League which continue to attract top talent and coaches from around the world.
