GG vs RCB, WPL 2023: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details

The sixth match of the inaugural edition of the Women’s Premier League (WPL) will see the Gujarat Giants square off against the Royal Challengers Bangalore Women. The clash will take place at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.

Gujarat Giants didn’t have the best of starts to the competition. They lost to the Mumbai Indians Women in their opening game and failed to turn the tables around as they lost a close-fought contest against UP Warriorz in their next.

Batting first, Harleen Deol top-scored with 46 as the Giants finished their innings on 169/6. Kim Garth picked up a fifer while defending the total. The game went down to the wire and the Giants failed to hold their nerves as the Warriorz got across the line with one ball to spare. The Giants will now have to be at their absolute best to grab their first win.

Royal Challengers Women have had a similar journey in the Women’s Premier League so far. They have played two games so far and are yet to win a game. They lost to the Delhi Capitals in their first game and lost to the Mumbai Indians Women in their second fixture.

Batting first, RCB Women failed to put up big partnerships as they were knocked over on 155 in the penultimate over. The bowlers struggled to hit the right areas as the Mumbai Indians Women chased down the total in 14.2 overs to win the game by nine wickets. The Bangalore-based franchise will be hoping to put in a much-improved performance on Wednesday (March 8).
