UP Warriorz (UP) will start their home leg of the Women's Premier League (WPL) by taking on Gujarat Giants (GG) on Monday, March 3. The match will be played at the iconic Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium. UP is coming off a thumping loss at the hands of MI, while GG has momentum as they beat RCB by six wickets. It's a clash between number three on the points table UP vs bottom-placed GG.
However, GG have a chance to go to the second position in the points table if they manage to win against UP. GG have had a mixed outing in the ongoing WPL, managing to win just two wins from the five games played so far. With only four matches left, GG needs their batting and bowling to click in unison if they harbor hopes of qualifying for their maiden playoff in the WPL 2025 season.
UP vs GG Match Preview
Under the new leader Deepti Sharma, UP have so far had a topsy-turvy season. They started the WPL 2025 season by losing two games on the bounce. However, in the Bengaluru leg of the tournament, UP won two games and lost just one game. They are currently placed third on the points table, but things can quickly go downhill if they don't manage to show consistency. UP's bowling is looking in fine form, with Sophie Ecclestone, Kranti Goaud, and Grace Harris amongst the wickets. It is the batting that has led the side down, with middle-order batters like Deepti Sharma, Tahlia McGrath, and Uma Chetry not among the runs.
For GG, it's the other way around as their bowlers have let the game slip up despite batters doing a good job. Their foreign core of Ash Gardner, Beth Mooney, Deanra Dottin, and Phoebe Litchfield are amongst the runs, but there has been little or no support from the Indian core. Apart from Kashvee Gautam, who has taken six wickets so far, the other bowlers like Tanuja Kanwar, Meghna Singh, and Priya Mishra have so far had a mediocre season.
